Special Encore Presentation: Now What? An Insiders Guide to Addiction and Recovery with guest William Cope Moyers

Summary: As the survivor of multiple relapses and near-fatal experiences with his addiction to alcohol and other drugs, William C. Moyers knows what it is like to desperately need, but not know how to find, a good treatment program. As Moyers was struggling, his parents –television journalist Bill Moyers and his wife, Judith – were also battling to understand what was happening to their son and what to do about it. Thanks to a successful intervention, intensive inpatient treatment, and a rigorous Twelve Step program, Moyers has been clean and sober since 1994. Moyers has talked with hundreds of alcoholics, addicts, and their families and has been a lifeline in helping them get the treatment they need. Drawing from both his own journey and the experience of those he’s helped, Moyers will discuss how to recognize when someone needs help; finding a quality treatment program; navigating the treatment process; and establishing a support system after treatment.
