Drug abuse and alcoholism happen in our society. They occur among the rich and the poor -- even athletes and celebrities are not immune from addictions. As a teacher, I am well aware that addiction happens among my students and in every classroom in every high school in the country -- and among younger students as well. A substance abuse problem can be devastating to a student's academic success.
That's why I like the idea of Sober College, a drug rehab treatment program for young people that not only is that is not only interested in helping them with their substance abuse problems, but also with providing them with the academic resources that help them get back on track in life. It is a 3-12 month program, residential in nature, and with a state of the art education and learning center where academics, counseling and vocational support are provided to all clients. When they have completed their program, these young people are not just equipped for sobriety -- they are also equipped with academic and job skills that will help them ove beyond their prior problems and succeed in the real world.
