SUPPORT FOR ADDICTIONS
Opioid addiction has reached epidemic proportions and rates are especially high in the state of Pennsylvania. Addiction, no matter what form it takes, is causing much suffering in the lives of many of our Archdiocesan families and they are looking to the Church for hope and help.
