Feb 3 2016 Meeting

Kim Rubenstein from "be a part of the CONVERSATION" gave an excellent talk on how this organization has evolved from 2011. Be a Part of the Conversation addresses the disease of addiction....substance use, abuse and addiction and its impact on young people.They are building a culture of awareness and support in a non-threatening environment to help break the cycle of substance abuse. But it is not just for young people...parents, Family members, educators, law enforcement, friends, health care providers and young people of all ages participate to not only become informed about addiction but to become empowered to find resources and outside help when needed. Recovery from addiction is not an easy road to follow and this organization provides a positive way for everyone to work together to help those who are addicted and also their families. The goal is always to bring about positive changes in the lives of young people and their families. You too can be a part of the conversation by attending any of their events. There is an event in Horsham at the Horsham Township Center Tues Feb 23 at 6:30 PM. This fifth annual Conversation Forum " Embracing the Consequences..when unwanted outcomes become part of the solution" is open to anyone interested in finding out more. It will feature a panel of young people in recovery, as well as representatives from a drug court program,probation, and family members who have been impacted by the disease of addiction.
