Christopher Kennedy Lawford is a Public Advocacy Consultant with Caron Treatment Centers, a leading nonprofit provider of addiction treatment. In his role, Mr. Lawford raises awareness about addiction and long-term recovery by sharing his experience, strength and hope with clinicians, educators, families and professionals.

“As part of my work with Caron, I’ve had the privilege of meeting Linda Quirk. I’m truly inspired by Linda’s mission to run seven marathons on seven continents in hopes of raising $1 Million for Caron’s addiction treatment scholarships, which are awarded to families as part of Caron’s mission. As the stepmother of a Caron Renaissance alumni, Linda experienced firsthand the impact of addiction and the powerful effect treatment can have on a family. I encourage you to visit Linda’s website, http://run7on7.com, to learn more about her amazing journey and to offer your much-needed support.”
