Bravo Beyoncé and Miss Tina. Your thoughtful and generous contribution to help the residents of Phoenix House certainly validates the power of “community as a healing agent”. It is impressive that you committed not only to open the Cosmetology Center but to also support its sustainability. I believe the Cosmetology Center will pave the way for the residents of Phoenix House to find a meaningful role in the world, a way of being in the world with vocation.

This is Awesome!!! I think that any woman can benefit from knowing these skills and the encouraging women of Phoenix house will definitely take away a life long skill that can earn them an honest living any where they go in the world! xo

Beyonce has passed on a tremendous
gift to help someone who under any other circumstances may not have the advantages that is now being offered to increase the chance of acquiring skills that may be life changing.Tina and Beyonce are cheerful givers who are sharing blessings that have bestowed upon their lives.

Comment on The Myth of Crack Mothers and Babies by Kim Sumner-Mayer

Thanks for commenting on this issue, Deni. Working on behalf of grandparents and other relatives raising children, usually because of parents’ addiction problems, I know how pervasive the “crack baby” myth still is. It is a source of anxiety and shame for caregivers and the children themselves. In COAF’s Prenatal Substance Exposure Toolkit, we emphasize over and over again that it is the post-birth environment that most heavily influences a child’s development, and not their initial presentation at birth. I hope that comments like yours can help to correct the stereotype, and provide dignity to families affected by parental crack addiction.

Believe it or not, more and more people are dying from heroin addiction and heroin detox is the only way to help a heroin addict kick this terrible habit.

There are various reasons why people take this drug in the first place and some of this reasons include:
