About Us
Let's Get Real, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non profit Recovery Community Organization based in Lorain, OH. After completing two community awareness forums, we opened our doors in August of 2013 in Vermilion, OH. We have grown exponentially since we opened our doors. in 2023 we served 3,930 persons with our array of services. Our mission is to provide information, education, and resource assistance to families and loved ones in their journey from addiction to recovery. Proudly, Let's Get Real, Inc. received our first award from the Erie/Ottawa County Mental Health and Recovery Board "Outstanding New Program" award in 2013. Since than we have received numerous awards and recognition for our services. in 2022 we received a behavioral health certification through the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OHMAS) to provide Peer Recovery Services, Referral and Information as a Peer Run Organization.
Since then we have worked diligently providing recovery support services in several surrounding counties. We opened our doors in Norwalk, OH in 2020 duplicating the services we were providing in Lorain County. See the Lorain and Huron county page for a list of services we provide.
The disease of addiction and alcoholism has no boundaries, it strikes all populations despite ethnicity or economic demographics . However, eligibility for treatment has definite boundaries. The process of finding help for your loved one, and support for yourself, is overwhelming and often costly. Let's Get Real, Inc. makes this process easier while providing emotional support, education, and awareness. We assist in finding detox and treatment, providing a family group and group for children impacted by substance abuse, as well as other sober support groups.
Our offices and phone lines are open Monday thru Friday from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm in both offices. In the field, our Certified Peer Recovery Supporters meet those in need where they are. This includes hospitals, jails, police stations and the Harm Reduction Clinic.
It takes one to know one! Our dedicated staff and Board of Directors have walked this journey themselves. A Certified Peer Recovery Supporter is certified through the State of Ohio, for more information please see the page located under Recovery Services.
Drug addiction is a chronic disease. Drug addiction is a family disease. Our goal is to assist the entire family in their journey. Recovery works. Recovery is possible. Our task is to help those in need, remove obstacles, and increase the chance of full recovery for everyone concerned. WE ARE HERE FOR YOU! RECOVERY IS POSSIBLE!
