Recovering Young People’s Stories
Young people who are recovering from alcohol and other drug problems are
everywhere - in our high schools and colleges and communities
and workplaces and families. Part two of the “Teens Using Drugs” series
concludes with a young person in recovery sharing his or her story – how it
was, what happened, and how it is for them now; sharing his or her experience,
strength and hope in recovery; showing by example that young people with the
disease of addiction can recover and lead happy, healthy, productive,
responsible lives.
We are very grateful to the young people who agreed
to share their stories below, and we hope you enjoy reading them!
Erin’s story!
More stories coming –
please check back!
