We provide assistance for those struggling with substance abuse. There is hope here.
SOS for Addictions was founded by Kimberly Hinkel to provide a safe haven for individuals and families who are battling addiction. We provide individuals and families struggling with addiction the opportunity to search for and connect with professionals and service providers. It’s our mission to foster hope. You are not alone.
We understand the holistic approach required for treatment and recovery and strive to educate families and the community on the disease of addiction. Kimberly’s personal experience and pain of watching a family member suffer from addiction allows her to truly connect and empathize with families riding the tumultuous roller coaster of emotions addiction brings to family members. While much of her work focuses on the trauma experienced by families of addicted loved ones and the risks of PTSD in children exposed to parental substance abuse, Kimberly presents on a variety of topics related to addiction and works with community coalitions on prevention efforts. In 2017, Kimberly was honored to be invited and speak with other National experts at the Generation’s United International Global Conference on the subject of Raising Children of the Opioid Epidemic: Solutions and Supports for Grandfamilies.
