Chris Herren to Speak to DHS

On May 30, 2023, former professional basketball players, Chris Herren, will share his story with the students at Danvers High School about his battle with addiction and recovery with the goal of making a positive difference in the lives of others.

His recovery journey has been documented in the bestselling memoir, Basketball Junkie, the Emmy-nominated ESPN Films documentary, Unguarded, and in countless local, national, and international stories by The New York Times, The Boston Globe and Sports Illustrated, among others. Through his company, Herren Talks, Chris has spoken to over 1 million students and community members, sparking honest discussions about substance use disorder and wellness.

We look forward to welcoming Chris to Danvers.
