I think to years from now we can be in a better place. I really think that's where a lot of this starts, because a lot of these other stories that we hear are people who didn't have strong parents or good programs after school, or their parents used, or their parents were users, and it's a cycle.
What happens when the worlds of addiction and law enforcement collide? In this eye-opening episode of 'Odyssey House Journals', host Randall Carlisle sits down with John Huber, a former prosecutor from West Valley, to explore this very question. Huber offers a unique perspective on the evolving approach to drug-related crimes, highlighting how law enforcement is shifting towards more humane strategies.
He also discusses the alarming rise of fentanyl and its deadly impact, driven by cartels looking to profit at any cost. But it’s not all doom and gloom; Huber shares success stories from federal diversion programs that aim to break the cycle of addiction. The conversation doesn't stop there. Carlisle and Huber delve into the crucial role of strong parenting and effective after-school programs in preventing substance abuse among youth.
If you're curious about how the justice system intersects with addiction recovery, or if you're looking for hope in the face of this epidemic, this episode offers a compelling listen.
