A Night of Hope

The Think of Michael Foundation and A Healthy Lynnfield will host the 8th annual Night of Hope event on Sunday, October 4, 2026. The event starts at 5:00pm at Lynnfield Middle School with resource tables staffed by local treatment providers offering information about mental health issues and substance use disorders. All attendees will receive a free tee shirt and a votive. At 6:00 p.m. participants will walk to the Town Common where speakers will share their recovery stories.

The community is invited to come out and show support for those that struggle every day to reclaim their lives from substance use disorders and to celebrate hard-fought successes for those who remain substance free.

As an awareness-raising and family event, parents are encouraged to start conversations early with their children about healthy choices and the impact substance use can have.

The Think of Michael Foundation provides scholarships to Sober House living which is not covered by insurance.For many, it is an invaluable part of their transition to sobriety.
