| Description: | In this program, nine men and women--all recovering from drug and/or alcohol addiction--tell their stories. They include a former narcotics agent now recovering from a cocaine habit; a mother of three who is a marketing specialist; a former addict and founder of Stand Up Harlem, a community of HIV-positive addicts and recovering addicts; a journalist and former addict who actually served as a researcher for this series. The candid testimony from people who have been there leaves little doubt that addiction can happen to anyone, and so can recovery. |
