Jacksonville, Fla. – Oct 9, 2024 – Sophros Recovery is proud to announce a special Veterans Day Celebration on Tuesday, Nov. 5, in Jacksonville. The celebration will honor Veterans and bring the local community together with various engaging activities, food, and educational opportunities.
The Veteran’s Day Celebration will be from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at 2511 St. Johns Bluff Rd. S, Suite 106, Jacksonville, Florida 32246. It will feature various wellness activities, Veteran support organizations, and a keynote address by Nick Padlo, OIF/OEF Veteran and founder of Sophros Recovery. Attendees can enjoy games, music, and food trucks, talk with Veteran resources, and learn more about mental health and addiction support available to Veterans. Local veteran-owned businesses and local Jacksonville veterans will also be at the event.
“We aim to provide a safe place for Veterans to heal — one that truly understands what they’ve been through and supports them as they regain their lives,” says Padlo. “Our event is an opportunity to celebrate Veterans while connecting them with valuable mental health and addiction recovery resources. It takes an entire community of resources to support our Veterans, and we are excited that so many organizations are coming to support them!”
About Sophros Recovery
As seen in USA Today, MSN, and Tampa Bay’s Morning Blend, Nick Padlo is the founder and CEO of Sophros Recovery and is a Florida native. Nick received his undergraduate degree from the United States Military Academy (West Point) and served five years in the United States Army, where he spent 27 months in combat operations between Afghanistan and Iraq, earning the Bronze Star and Combat Action Badge. After leaving the Army, he attended Stanford University for business school and later became CEO of an Inc1000 growth company.
Nick’s move into substance abuse treatment is a result of his personal battles with depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder. After receiving treatment, Nick defined his mission as helping others through similarly dark times. He believes everyone can find their way back, regain their lives, and live a life free of suffering. Sophros was designed to be just that place where clients across Florida can develop a set of tools that can help them establish their road to recovery.
