Question by Yadally J: Drugs victims?
Are there any best solution for drugs victim to intergrate in their real life

Best answer:

Answer by KC V
I don’t believe there is any ONE best solution for a “drug victim” to make their life better. It takes more than one avenue of approach to abstain from some drugs on the street.

Families need to pull together and provide comfort, strength, courage, and support!

Neighbors need to report suspicious activities that draw drug dealers to the area.

Churches need to reach out to the community to “raise the village.”

Schools need to provide current and up to date information concerning illegal drug use and the effects of drug abuse.

The term “war on drugs” is outdated and should more appropriately be referred to as “a cancer on society.”

Just my humble opinion!
