There are a lot of prevention coalitions out there, but I have not seen any that have done as good a job of integrating recovering people as Families Against Narcotics.
They have a speaker’s bureau that includes 50 young people in recovery and organize activities that include a softball game between the local police and young people in recovery.
I have been an addiction professional and social worker since 1994. I started blogging in 2005 as the Clinical Director at Dawn Farm. I no longer work at Dawn Farm and am now the Director of Behavioral Medicine at a community hospital, and a lecturer at Eastern Michigan University’s School of Social Work.
Views expressed here are my own.
Keep in mind that the field, the contexts in which the field operates, and my views have changed over time.
