CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) – Hamilton County Coalition continues their support for the community by holding their inaugural “Racquets for Recovery: Smashing Stigma” event which raises funds for their intervention and prevention programs.

The fundraiser is hoping to raise awareness for substance misuse and disorders while smashing the stigma around the topics. The event is on June 7-8 and it will be a Pro 8 Round Robin with River City Tennis being one of their partners. The coalition is always accepting volunteers and donations for the event to help further their outreach in the community.

For those who can’t participate in the “Racquets for Recovery,” the Hamilton County Coalition has additional events and programs that need volunteers.
