Steps for Change: #EndOverdose

On August 15, 2026, Brad’s Place Addiction Treatment of Southern Georgian Bay will host the 2nd Annual Steps for Change: #EndOverdose fundraising run in Stayner, Ontario. This community event brings together families, friends, service providers, and local businesses to honour those we’ve lost to overdose, support those still struggling, and raise critical funds for youth-focused addiction treatment and family support services in Southern Georgian Bay.
Participants will complete a family-friendly run/walk route through Stayner, with options suitable for all ages and fitness levels. The event will feature opening remarks, a moment of remembrance, information booths, and opportunities to learn more about overdose prevention, harm reduction, and local resources. Funds raised will directly support Brad’s Place programs, ensuring that no young person or family is turned away due to financial barriers.
Steps for Change: #EndOverdose is more than a run—it’s a visible stand against stigma, a celebration of recovery, and a call to action for better, youth-specific addiction services in our region.
