Dallas 24 Hour Club, Inc.

🍁 Welcome November! Let’s kick off a month filled with gratitude. What are you grateful for?

They are here! Thank you to Dylan Hollingsworth for capturing photos from our 2024 Dallas All Star Chef Classic.

Please tag yourself and others!

We can only add 80 photos to this post, so be sure and check out the full album in our Photos tab.

October 23-31 is Red Ribbon Week, a powerful campaign dedicated to raising awareness about the consequences of drug abuse and promoting prevention efforts in our communities. Founded by the National Family Partnership (NFP)—a grassroots nonprofit established in 1980 by concerned parents—this initiative has grown into a national leader in drug prevention education and advocacy.

NFP’s mission is to support families and communities in nurturing the full potential of healthy, drug-free youth. By wearing a red ribbon, we show our commitment to a drug-free future and honor those impacted by substance abuse. Join us in spreading awareness during this important week!

As the weather cools down, we are in urgent need of warm-weather clothing donations for our Clothes Closet! Items like jackets, sweaters, pants, and other winter essentials make a huge difference for our Residents as they work toward rebuilding their lives.

If you have gently used clothing to give, please consider donating and helping our community stay warm this season. Donations can be dropped off at The 24, and we truly appreciate your support!

On World Mental Health Day, we are reminded that mental health is a crucial part of recovery from addiction. At The 24, we understand the significant impact mental health has on the overall well-being of our Residents. Many individuals facing addiction are also dealing with mental health challenges, and providing support for both is essential for long-term recovery.

By offering resources and a community of understanding, we aim to create a space where Residents feel safe to address their mental health needs without judgment. Mental health should never be an afterthought—it’s a fundamental part of healing and growth. Let’s continue to break the stigma, raise awareness, and support one another on the journey to wellness.

The month of October signifies National Substance Abuse Prevention Month — a time for communities to come together as partners in prevention. This month is also a time to acknowledge those in recovery, as well as children, parents, family, and friends supporting them.

As Tim Grigsby says, “If it’s hidden, it’s never going to be confronted.” Let’s normalize talking about addiction this month to help prevent substance misuse and support those in need.
