Vegas Stronger Begins Offering FREE Haircuts for Clients

Self-Care and Looking Presentable is an Important Part of the Process of Recovery 

Las Vegas, NV – September 29, 2022 – Vegas Stronger, a non profit whose mission is to help eradicate opioid addiction through treatment in Las Vegas and get homeless off the streets and into treatment, is pleased to announce today that they have begun offering free haircuts to all of their clients via their partnership with Sober Salon. The haircuts are available every second Wednesday of the month for Vegas Stronger clients. 

 “Self-care has been defined as the process of taking care of oneself with behaviors that promote health and active management of illness when it occurs,” said Dave Marlon, Founder and President of Vegas Stronger. “It so crucial that our patients feel confident and able to go out into the world, and if a fresh haircut is one of the things that helps, we are happy to provide that.”

About Vegas Stronger

Vegas Stronger is a unique Non-Profit Organization 503(c)(3) focused on reversing the devastation caused to our community by the opiate epidemic and addiction. Our out-of-the box approach helps anyone afflicted, regardless of their race, socio-economic status, or housing situation, in an outpatient facility. We offer more than just traditional groups and are a growing facility with a sober boxing gym, coffee shop, bookstore, bicycle mission, and our customized “13 Core Elements Method.”

We facilitate that restoration to wholeness for individuals, families, and society at large, by creating awareness and providing access to both state-of-the-art and historically reliable remedies. Our services cater to all suffering from the depths of addiction. In many instances, residential rehab is not a viable or financial option.
