Our Story
9/18/1983 – 2/26/2016
Forever 32
Christopher Wolf passed after a 14 year battle with opioid misuse and dependency. Like so many others, his battle with opioid dependency began with a prescription. Christopher was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis in middle school. This diagnosis led to countless surgeries and a lifelong struggle with pain management the foundation of which was opioids.
When Christopher passed, Cammie Wolf Rice, his mother, transmuted her pain into purpose. She’s dedicating her life to preventing other mothers from the soul crushing pain of losing a child.
In 2018, Cammie founded the CWC Alliance (Christopher Wolf Crusade) to end opioid misuse before it begins. After all of the time that Cammie spent in the hospital with Christopher, she recognized a fundamental need for prevention. There was not one professional on Christopher’s medical team to educate him and his family about the risks of his pain medication. As a result, Christopher struggled with opioid misuse and passed away from it.
Our goal is to provide opioid education and resources as well as mental wellness skills training directly to hospital inpatients and outpatients to ensure they are well supported during recovery. This support is provided by CWC Alliance’s Life Care Specialist, a Care Coach who personally sees the patient through to recovery. In addition, CWC Alliance’s Be Well Program provides patients and their families with the resources necessary to ensure a substance-free future post-recovery.
In 2025, CWC Alliance continued to shift the narrative around opioid misuse by championing community wellness, expanding the Life Care Specialist program, introducing the Youth Prevention Network, and strengthening advocacy efforts across the communities we serve. As our initiatives reach more individuals and families each year, the impact of our work continues to grow. We remain grateful for the support of our partners and communities and look forward to building on this momentum in the years ahead.
In 2024, CWC Alliance worked to shift the narrative around opioid misuse by championing community wellness, expanding the Life Care Specialist program, and furthering advocacy efforts. The impact of our work grows every year, and we are grateful for a future of continued growth ahead of us.
