Karen567 - love what you had to say!

I work with a local coalition which just received a Drug Free Communities Grant and we are looking into changing healthcare policies in our county and eventually in Oregon - if you have any concrete info, contacts, resources,... please email them to me at paadadfc@gmail.com!

Thanks - Lisa

I believe your discussion is damaging to people who are suffering from addiction.  Addiction is biological not moral, of course there is a lot of spiritual damage done to yourself and others in your life, yet PLEASE, PLEASE have the medical profession on to discuss this condition medically.  We are doing millions an injustice not confronting addiction as a health care issue.
