October is National Medicine Abuse Awareness Month, a time to call attention to the dangers of prescription and over-the-counter medicine, which is a bigger problem than many people realize. Richard Capriola, who recently retired from his role as an addiction counselor at The Menninger Clinic in Houston, tells us why he decided to write 'The Addicted Child: A Parent’s Guide to Adolescent Substance Abuse' and its accompanying workbook, and how parents can use the materials to help their child.
Next is an encore interview with Cynthia A. Trigg, chief executive officer and founder of Evolution Academy, a public charter high school which serves as a dropout recovery center for at risk youth grades 9th through 12th. At Evolution Academy, an organization with a student population that is 95 percent at risk of dropping out of school, this means accepting no excuses and focusing on every student that walks through the doors of each campus every day.
