Are you looking for a way to get involved and help people in recovery? Attend the Better Beginnings Banquet benefiting The Jace Waters Foundation for Transitional Living of Alabama in the Willow Room at the Daphne Civic Center.

While learning about The Jace Waters Foundation and its mission, dinner from L.A. Barbecue will be served and a silent auction will take place. Tickets are $50 and can be purchased by clicking the button below.

​Monetary donations from the Better Beginnings Banquet provide scholarships to get people in need into transitional living (also known as sober living or a recovery residence).

​Going into a good sober living environment after treatment gives people a much higher chance of a successful recovery by placing them in a surrounding that helps them learn how to handle day-to-day stress and anxiety without turning to a drink or drug.

We would love for businesses or individuals to sponsor our banquet. Click on the form below for more information.

While Overdose Awareness Day has been held for several years in Mobile, in 2023, Baldwin County held its first observance at Heritage Park in Foley, Alabama. The Jace Waters Foundation is an active participant in both. The day is commemorated with recovery resource organizations, speakers, music, food, and fellowship.

International Overdose Awareness Day stands as the largest annual global effort to combat overdoses, commemorate those who have lost their lives to overdose without judgment, and recognize the pain and sorrow experienced by the loved ones they leave behind.
