AMERICA IS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE EPIDEMIC!

EVERY 30 MINUTES SOMEONE IN OUR COUNTRY DIES BECAUSE OF AN ALCOHOL RELATED ACCIDENT!

TWO OUT OF EVERY FIVE AMERICANS WILL BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH ALCOHOL INVOLVED!

Everyone has heard facts like the ones listed above, and they are all true. What doesn't get a lot of publicity however, is the tremendous damage alcohol and other drugs cause everyday families like yours.  Today, virtually every family has a member who is harmfully involved with alcohol or other drugs.
Alcohol is still the biggest drug of abuse.  Government estimates put persons who abuse alcohol at 15% of the population.  Each alcoholic or alcohol abuser directly effects an average of seven other people.  It's easy to see that the whole country is affected!

Everyone with an alcohol problem has "good reasons" that they drink.  Family
and friends want to believe them.  The fact is that there are no "reasons" to
drink abusively, but there are a world of EXCUSES.  You owe it to yourself,
your loved ones and to the abusive drinker in your life to recognize these
excuses for what they are and to stop accepting them.  When excuses are no
longer accepted, the problem drinker often has to take a hard look at his or
her drinking and begins to see the damage that alcohol has caused.  It could
be the beginning of recovery.
