One in four children lives in a home affected by alcoholism or alcohol abuse, and countless others are impacted by parental drug use.
The toll addiction takes on these children can be substantial. Their lives are often confusing and frightening and they deserve clarity and help. Research shows that many children with alcohol- or drug-dependent parents
can benefit tremendously from adult efforts to help and encourage them.
Children need to hear messages like: “It’s not your fault,” “You are not alone,” and “There is help.”
NACoA’s goals include
raising awareness, providing leadership in public policy, informing and educating academic and community service organizations, and most importantly, advocating for accessible programs and services for children of alcoholics. NACoA provides direct service organizations and professionals who work with children, including adult children of alcoholics, the
tools they need to provide early intervention
, reaching and bringing hope and healing to millions of hurting children.

My personal message:
Hi Everyone & Happy New Year!
I am very fortunate to be able to represent NACoA as one of their runners in January '08. I'll be running a 5k on Friday the 11th, a half-marathon on Saturday the 12th, and then a full marathon on Sunday the 13th, raising awareness for NACoA during the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. I'd like to raise a little money for them too, and I hope you'll help by giving whatever you can. You can donate or make a pledge contingent on my athletic performance. I would much rather you just flat out donate, but I am open to challenges. Any amount you can provide is a blessing.
I would like to publicly thank the individuals and organizations that have pledged or donated offline thus far: Neil Tilow, Talbert House, Linda Wulff, Mary & James Smith, Norma Wulff, Stefan Eckert, Charles & Ellen W
olfenberger
, Matt & Whitney Young, Eileen Wulff, Kathy Barnes, and Darrin Nye.
There's a copy of my fundraising letter online
here
, in case you missed it.
If you have any questions about my involvement with NACoA, marathon running, sobriety, goofiness, or anything else, you can reach me at stefan dot densmore at gmail dot com, or by calling my cell phone at (513) 379-8992. Thank you for your consideration of this worthy cause, and God Bless!
