According to event organizers:

Join us this month for a facilitated conversation to grow and strengthen our ability to prevent addiction and reduce suffering. We will engage in an interactive, insightful, open and honest conversation with local area therapist and addictions counselor, Dr. Chad Coren. This is a unique opportunity to bring your questions spanning the spectrum of addiction from experimentation to physical addiction and recovery. We will kick-off the conversation with common questions from our community members. Then, we will tailor the presentation to your needs.
