This discussion board is intended to provide a support and networking resource to those who are in recovery and to the friends and families that are also affected by substance abuse. If you are struggling with an addiction or working in a program, please know that you're not alone. Or if you are a family member (or friend) who would like information and support, you are welcome as well. As always, everyone has the right to privacy... so if anyone is wondering about participating on the board, but having some conflict... I would like to remind you that you can either have your profile as private, have it blank, or just create a secondary account so that you may participate in complete anonymity... either way, don't miss out on something that will potentially help. The point is to get help. Click here.

Health, Safety And Work-Life LISTSERVE. A new LISTSERVE for health, safety and work-life programs is now available. Members and their families can subscribe to this LISTSERVE, and when the Commandant sends information on the programs, it will be sent to everyone that is subscribed, at work or at home, or both. There won't be a set schedule for sending out information - it will be passed as information becomes available. Additional information.
