Dan Schneider: A Father’s Quest for Justice and Healing

I think together we can make a daggone difference. Maybe we can get a column in the paper, you know, instead of in the obituaries, you know.
When tragedy struck Dan Schneider's family, he could have been consumed by grief. Instead, he channeled his pain into a relentless pursuit of justice and advocacy. In this episode of 'Recovering Hope', host Mark Marcley sits down with Dan, famously known as 'The Pharmacist', to discuss the harrowing journey that began with the loss of his son in a drug deal gone wrong.
Dan’s story, featured in the Netflix documentary 'The Pharmacist', is not just about finding his son's murderer; it's about the broader battle against the opioid crisis that continues to devastate families across the country. From his grassroots efforts to expose unethical pharmaceutical practices to his ongoing fight for better addiction treatment resources, Dan’s mission is deeply personal and profoundly impactful.
This conversation delves into the emotional toll of addiction on families, the legal battles against big pharma, and the crucial role communities play in supporting recovery. Dan's unwavering dedication serves as a powerful reminder that one person can indeed make a difference. If you're looking for a story of resilience, hope, and the fight for justice, this episode is a must-listen.
