– This disease, it is an “equal opportunity” disease that is indiscriminate, affecting all ages from children to the elderly; the rich and poor alike; the educated and uneducated; male and females; and single individuals and families.
– Alcohol and drug dependency is an out of control disease that is ruining and taking the lives of our young people.
– Every person in America is affected by alcohol and drug dependence and its consequences – either personally, at home, in the workplace, as victims of crimes, and/or as a taxpayer.
