Writers In Treatment – Supporting Recovery and the Arts

Writers In Treatment Vision

Many writers’ lives are threatened by the inability to quit alcoholic drinking, serious substance abuse, and process addictions. Too often writers and poets working alone at home, in a publisher’s cubicle, or in cabin retreat succumb to the deadly combination of isolation and addiction. Writers In Treatment helps men and women in the writing industry suffering from alcoholism, drug addiction, and other self-destructive behaviors get treatment for their disease. Read More

Jewelle Sturm Scholarship Fund

Jewelle died from an accidental drug overdose on April 30, 2010 in Los Angeles, CA. She was three weeks  from her 29th birthday. She was a writer in the classic oral tradition of spontaneous prose and poetry. It is in her honor that this Free Referral Service was born. We recommend women to professional and effective rehabilitation programs. This service is made possible by contributions from Jewelle’s friends, family members and the annual Experience, Strength, and Hope Award Event. Read More
