Speaking at the Capitol Sacramento at the ENOUGH Rally
Boston Park Plaza 08/07/2019
Our guests include parent activists and treatment professionals from all across the US and politicians who are active with Rx reform. These people have almost all lost a child to addiction and have huge lists of followers who share the same fate.
I am a father who has been on the front lines of addiction as opposed to a doctor with a degree in addiction and a 2 year old. Parents in the throes of addiction need to know they are not alone and parents of younger children need to understand that addiction can happen to anyone. Not one of the parents who lost a child to addiction every thought their child would become an addict. Not one addict ever thought they would become addicted.
The road to addiction is clear when you look back and I will share the wisdom of those who have traveled this road to help other avoid the Hell of addiction.
Brad is honored and pleased to be an Alliance member of Know More About Drugs, Founded by Nancy Cartwright, best known as the voice of Bart Simpson. Nancy founded KMAD to help parents get a clear understanding of the prescription drugs we are prescribed by assuring that all patients are provided the FDA-approved Medication Guides.
