Our Inspiration
McFaden’s Mission was born from a mother’s broken heart. Donald McFaden Orange II is the second oldest of 12 children. He was part of the Connecticut Army National Guard. After a back injury, he was prescribed medications that led to a long-term addiction which culminated with Donald taking his own life in 2012, at the age of 29.
Donald always wanted to make sure his younger siblings and their friends never did drugs, and this is our way of honoring his wishes.
His mother, our founder and Executive Director, needed to find a way to mend her broken heart, and through that our facility has been created. Our facility brings the warmth and compassion of those who have life experience, or have suffered loss, alongside other healthcare professionals who understand how important every life is.
Guided by Compassion, Driven by Hope
McFaden's Mission was founded on a simple yet profound belief: that every individual deserves a safe space to heal and every voice should be heard. We are a dedicated team of mental health advocates and community leaders committed to breaking the silence around addiction and suicide. Through education, connection, and clinical excellence, we provide the tools and support needed for lasting recovery and resilience.

The Impact of Tomorrow
