How the Opioid Crisis is Destroying Families: America’s National Health Emergency.
Dr. John's latest Article
The Strain of the Opioid Epidemic on Families and the Foster Care System
Broken families, lost children, and a foster care system that can not meet the increasing demand.
The opioid crisis in America continues to claim more victims and,
continues to destroy more families. This opioid epidemic claimed more
than 33,000 deaths
in the United States in 2015, as public health officials call it the
worst drug crisis in the nation’s history. Indeed, the deaths from
heroin alone have surged and have claimed more lives in 2015 than homicides by guns.
These drugs, these opioids, often begin with legal
prescription medications, which are often used to block out pain.
Whether illegal, such as heroin, or prescribed by doctors yet are also
finding their way onto the black market, such as Vicodin and OxyContin,
and even the newest danger known as The Gray Death, the rise in opioid use in America is both dramatic and disturbing.
The Secret about foster parenting that no one is telling you.
