Speak Up for Ben, Inc. is a contracted service provider with Northampton County Department of Human Services Drug & Alcohol Division. We provide recovery-oriented systems of care to the Northampton County and Lehigh Valley, PA community through our flagship program, the OASIS Community Center. As such, Speak Up for Ben, Inc. undergoes an annual audit conducted by a third-party accounting firm and submitted to the Northampton County Department of Human Services Drug and Alcohol Division Administrator (SCA) for accountability and transparency.


OUR MISSION


Through compassion and understanding of the family disease of addiction, we seek to provide education, support, comfort and healing to people who are at risk for, experiencing, or recovering from Substance Use Disorder, their families, and the families of those who lost their battle. This will be accomplished through educational forums, community events, and providing supportive programming through the OASIS Community Center in Northampton County, Pennsylvania.

Notice Regarding Tax-Exempt Status

Speak Up for Ben, Inc. has temporarily had its 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status suspended due to noncompliance in filing required annual returns, as a result of administrative oversight. Therefore, donations made at this time are not currently tax-deductible. However, we are actively working with the IRS to secure retroactive reinstatement of our tax-exempt status. We are confident that our status will be restored soon and that eligible donations will be recognized as tax-deductible retroactively.


We appreciate your continued support and understanding as we resolve this matter. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions.
