Almost Understood

Resources

For readers, groups, and anyone who needs it

Almost Understood is about addiction, a broken family, and the grace that found Jake anyway. If any of that is your story right now, you don't have to carry it alone.

If you need help today

You don't have to do this alone

If you or someone you love is in danger right now, call 911. These are good places to start for everything else.

These organizations aren't connected to Jake or the book. They're just good people doing good work.
