What:
David Lawrence Foundation presents…. Christopher Kennedy Lawford: His personal journey to recovery and redemption

Event Description:
The David Lawrence Foundation will host Christopher Kennedy Lawford, actor, New York Times Best selling author, mental health and substance abuse activist, and member of the famed Kennedy family, as the keynote speaker at this fundraising luncheon. Mr. Lawford will also attend an exclusive VIP Patron party for sponsors the evening before the luncheon at a private residence in Naples.

Lawford will share intimate details about his deep and long descent into near-fatal drug and alcohol addiction, and his subsequent formidable path back to the sobriety he has preserved for the past twenty years. His presentation will explain the bittersweet truth about life inside America’s greatest family legacy filled with enormous privilege and burdened by gut-wrenching family tragedy. His poignant, honest portrayal of life as a Kennedy, a journey overflowing with hilarious insider anecdotes, heartbreaking accounts of his addictions to narcotics as well as to celebrity and, ultimately, the redemption he found by asserting his own independence, will be sure to move guests and Foundation supporters.
