The Peggie & Paul Shevlin Family Foundation (or The Shevlin Family Foundation) offers resources and support to those faced with addiction. Working with Treatment providers, our Scholarship Program provides housing funds for qualified people who are getting ready to discharge from treatment. Our First Helps Program aims to assist with seemingly small (but very important) human needs for those in ea

Our Journey Program gives our Delaware County clients ongoing support in their firat years of recovery. The Shevlin Family Foundation also offers a Sober Living Program for Men in Chester who have multiple years in long-term recovery. In addition, we help individuals access & navigate treatment options. Through events, service outreach, social media & collaboration with other organizations we educate, build and nurture sober communities.

To our incredible Delco Overdose Awareness & Memorial Walk sponsors - thank you. 💜

To the families who gave in memory of someone they love, to the businesses who believe in what we're building, and to the treatment centers walking alongside us in this fight - thank you all for stepping up to support this event and the work we do every day at Shevlin.

This walk is for everyone we've lost, everyone still fighting, and everyone who has loved or is loving someone through addiction. Thank you for being a part of our community. 🕊️

We will see you Monday evening at Saints Peter & Paul Cemetery in Springfield, PA. The gates open at 5:30 PM. The program will begin around 6:15 PM.

Please consider bringing a full sized hygiene item (think shampoo/shaving cream/deodorant) to support Shevlin's work with those in early recovery. 💜
