McAlister Institute’s 10th Annual 5K Walk for Sobriety is an opportunity to bring help and hope to thousands of individuals and families braving the unforgiving cycle of addiction. All proceeds from the Walk for Sobriety benefit McAlister Institute, one of San Diego's leading resources for individuals and families impacted by addiction. McAlister Institute helps bring life-saving services in substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, life skills education and vocational training to individuals. McAlister Institute’s mission is to save lives by ensuring affordable, quality treatment for every individual and family who seeks help, striving not to turn anyone away regardless of financial issues. The Walk for Sobriety is not only an opportunity to raise funds for life-saving services, but also a positive way to increase awareness, support the power of recovery, and fight the stigma many people with substance use disorders experience. Walkers, runners, and online supporters can spread a powerful message on the day of the Walk by wearing the number of days they—or their loved ones—have been clean and sober, and what it means to them.
