Kevin Stevens

POWER FORWARD NOW! - A Conversation with Kevin Stevens

Please join us in welcoming Kevin stevens in the upcoming CLEAR lecture on October 17th at 7:00 pm at The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh Lecture Hall in Oakland.  

Kevin Stevens was on top of the world -- a 2 times Stanley Cup Champion, a Celeberity Athlete, and a NHL Record Holder.  On an impulse decision, at the age of 28, he decided to try cocaine for the first time in the bathroom of a New York City nightclub.  His life changed forever.  Kevin spent the next several years batling addiction and losing his grip on what should have been a hall of fame career.  High profile arests, trouble on the ice and everything else that comes with addiction led Kevin down a dark path he never could have imagined traveling.  But if there was one thing that hockey and his upbringing taught him, it was to fight back!  Determined to not give up, Kevin got sober and stayed sober!  He relied on family, newfound relationships, and a network in recovery to not just maintain sobriety, but to help others find recovery as well.  From his passion to help others and provide resources came the birth of Power Forward. Kevin has dedicated his life to spreading the message of hope and changing the stigma of addiction.  Everyone loves a comeback story and Kevin loves helping people live them.
