Building community with and for young people while strengthening the connections that support their families.
Starlings Community is made up of
thought leaders and dream weavers who are
building supportive, stigma-free spaces where young people can unlearn the shame placed on them and reclaim their stories.
Ways we can support you, your family, or community:
For Peers, By Peers
Peers with lived and living experience with the stress & stigma of a parent's substance use lead the development of all our resources, ensuring relevancy and effectiveness.
For Organizations, With Peers
All of our trainings and resources for professionals are grounded in current research on child development, resilience, and healing while remaining rooted in lived experience, allowing us to expose critical gaps in research, resources, and relationships while promoting hope and healing.
