Please consider a contribution to Stop the Addiction Fatality Epidemic - Safe - Project Us.

Background

This cause is important to me and my family because addition is a struggle that can truly affect anyone. My dad was smart, innovative, and outgoing. Addiction still never let him go. Charities like the SAFE Project help with family and community outreach, harm reduction and reduce the stigma surrounding addiction. Recovery is ongoing and lifelong, but you are worth it.

About Stop the Addiction Fatality Epidemic - Safe - Project Us

SAFE Project was founded in November 2017 by Admiral James and Mary Winnefeld, following the loss of their 19-year old son Jonathan to an accidental opioid overdose. Read more about Jonathan Winnefeld.

The Winnefelds immediately channeled their grief into action, hoping to save more families from the pain of loss. Whether it was seeking treatment, getting answers, or understanding the nature of the disease – they knew there needed to be a different solution to help other families facing the same journey with substance use disorder.

They swiftly built our SAFE Project team of experts who strive for meaningful action through our programs, and lead efforts that are unifying, non-partisan and evidence-based. SAFE seeks meaningful metrics that strengthen our interdependent six lines of operation, and ultimately aim to achieve SAFE Communities, SAFE Campuses, SAFE Workplaces and SAFE Veterans across the nation.
