Addiction is a treatable disease and not a moral Failure - Cody’s Fresh Start believes that everyone with a substance use disorder deserves an opportunity for a fresh start in life. In memory of their founder's son, Cody, who died from an opioid overdose in 2013, they have committed to provide a fresh start to those who are in need. They offer treatment scholarships and other types of recovery support. There is a significant need for all types of addiction support from education and awareness to treatment and Recovery, and they want to change the conversation on how addiction is perceived by most as a moral failure instead of a treatable disease.

A living miracle, Jackie Huban co-founded Cody's Fresh Start Charity Works in 2014 with Mary Huff Cucarola, Alcohol and drug-free since September 4th, 2013, she embraced recovery at the age of 23 after her boyfriend, Cody (Mary’s son), died from an opioid overdose in 2013.
