7 Sisters
In April 2018, former NBA and University of Kentucky basketball star Rex Chapman visited the University of Southern Indiana (USI) in Evansville, Indiana, to speak about his personal journey with opioid addiction.
Rex Chapman was secured for this event by Direct Sportslink. The event was hosted by 7 Sisters, an Evansville-based non-profit organization. Key details regarding the organization and event include the following:
Mission: 7 Sisters was founded by seven women who had all lost children to opioid overdoses. Their mission is to eliminate the stigma surrounding addiction and provide support for families.
The Event: Chapman shared his "rock bottom" story, including his 12-year NBA career, the injuries that led to his reliance on prescription painkillers, and his eventual arrest and recovery.
Purpose: The free community event at USI’s Screaming Eagles Complex aimed to raise awareness about the opioid crisis in the Tri-State area.
