Clients of the Phoenix House Lake Ronkonkoma (New York) Women’s Program joined forces with author and basketball player Chris Herren, the Northport Community Book Club, and the Northport Community Drug and Alcohol Task Force for an evening celebrating recovery from drugs and alcohol at The Book Revue in Huntington. Chris read excerpts from his acclaimed book, Basketball Junkie, signed many books, and fielded questions from the audience. Our clients also spoke of their recovery process at this very powerful evening of sharing and enlightening discussion.
With our friends at the Book Club and the Drug and Alcohol Task Force assisting us, we are creating much needed awareness for addiction, recovery and prevention. We are proud to spread the word in an effort to keep our kids and community safe. Thanks to all for a great evening!
My beautiful lovely daughter was involved with the book signing and also spoke that day! I am very very proud of her. She is in house now 6 months and doing well. She enjoyed the signing with Chris and was so happy to be apart of it and to share her story. Thank You!! I love you Ash!!!
