Addiction's Uncomfortable Questions

Instructor: Rodney Beaver

Understanding substance use disorder is difficult if you’ve never been there yourself. In this class, we will dive into the uncomfortable questions families face. This discussion aims to address what oftentimes works and what typically makes things worse. Please join us for a frank and open panel discussion on addiction.

After a 21-year cycle of addiction, Rodney escaped the hopeless world of drug and alcohol abuse. It took losing it all, but he began to see life as the rewarding gift that it is and now shares that perspective as the Executive Director of the Recovery Center of the Ozarks. Alongside RCO’s team of peer specialists, a vision of hope lights the way for those in need.
