The Ayer Shirley Education Foundation presents

An Evening with Chris Herren

Wednesday, February 11, 2015

ASRHS Auditorium ~ 7:00 PM

Parents, teenagers, educators and concerned community members are invited
to hear this incredible speaker…don’t miss out!

Chris Herren is a former NBA basketball player, motivational speaker,
author and sobriety advocate who struggled with substance abuse for much of
his basketball career. Alcohol and drug-free since August 1, 2008, he has
refocused his life to put his sobriety and family above all else.

He shares his harrowing story of abuse and recovery in his memoir,
Basketball Junkie, as well as in numerous interviews throughout the Emmy
nominated ESPN Films documentary Unguarded, of which he is the subject.

With the hope of reaching just one person and making an impact, Chris
travels the United States sharing his story with professional athletic
teams and leagues including the NBA, NFL and MLB, universities and
colleges, high schools and community groups. Since 2009, he has spoken to
over 500,000 people nationwide and is thankful for each day that he can
share his story to further a message of hope that is it never too late to
start a new chapter in one’s life.

ASEF would like to thank our event sponsor, Health Partners New England,
for its generous donation to help make this event possible.
