I am trying to locate a news script that indicates that there is not enough done about letting the community know about the resources in the system that is available for those who wish to be free of substance abuse. Though my daughter Deborah did not fall into the category of substance abuse; she did have psychosis brought about my likely bi-polar, and casual drug use. In the finality, we will neveer know fully until we meet in Heaven. This news report, that I am looking for had a native man interviewed in it; and he he used the resources to get off the Vancouver East side scene.
