Employers are Part of the Solution
About 75 percent of people with an alcohol or drug problem are employed, yet only a fraction will ever get help. Research shows that these alcohol and drug problems have a big impact on an employer’s bottom line. 

At the same time, companies nationwide are grappling with how they can help their employees better manage chronic disease—in part due to healthcare reform and other changes.

Substance use disorder should be understood and treated like any other chronic disease. Face It Together’s Workplace Initiative gives employers the tools to help their employees while increasing productivity and better managing costs related to this illness.

By engaging in the battle against this disease, employers invest in their workforce - helping substantially more families and their communities, while boosting their bottom line.

How Face It TOGETHER Can Help
Face It Together helps communities by identifying potential local employer partners, fostering collaboration and providing worksite programming to promote and support recovery.

A financially sustainable model
We use value propositions to show that private sector investment in recovery makes good economic sense. By integrating substance use disorder into their chronic disease management programs, employers not only encourage healthier employees and families, but also respond strategically to the demands of healthcare reform. Our innovative initiatives deliver a return on investment for the private sector in exchange for an expectation of sustainable funding streams.
