Beverly Aikins Celebrates 10th Year of Sobriety in Roosevelt Room Ceremony
On Friday, April 4, Beverly Aikins, mother to Vice President JD Vance, celebrated her 10th year of sobriety in a Roosevelt Room ceremony with friends and family members. During the ceremony, Ms. Aikins received her 10-year medallion.
Ms. Aikins, a nurse at an addiction recovery center in the Cincinnati area, devotes her life to her family and to helping Americans who are struggling with addiction. In a 2024 interview, Ms. Aikins said her message to people battling addiction is, “to reach out, to try to get help, and that recovery is hard, but it’s so worth it.”
Many Americans were first introduced to Ms. Aikins during Vice President Vance’s speech at the 2024 Republican National Convention. During that speech, the Vice President said: “I'm proud to say that tonight my mom is here, 10 years clean and sober. I love you, Mom. And, you know, Mom, I was thinking. It'll be 10 years officially in January of 2025, and if President Trump's okay with it, let's have the celebration in the White House.”
