Encore presentation of installment 10/29/2012

"Getting and KEEPING Kids Sober, Healthy and Happy"

Guest: Jamison Monroe

Allen and Dr. Melody are joined by Jamison Monroe to discuss what parents can do when kids start down the

"wrong" path? Where to look for help, what works and what does not, as well as what happens after treatment.

With that in mind, Monroe believes strongly in educating families so that they can more effectively help

their children with addiction issues.

ABOUT JAMISON MONROE & NEWPORT ACADEMY

With years of personal recovery experience -- compassionate and effective treatment of adolescent health is

mission critical to Jamison Monroe. Monroe began his descent into alcohol and drug abuse as a teen, while

hiding behind that all too familiar 'happy family" facade. Despite a supportive family, Monroe remained in

this life-threatening cycle until he was admitted to a treatment center that focused on personalized,

comprehensive and holistic treatment that allowed him to safely address his individual underlying issues,

while balancing an effective amount of family involvement. Newport Academy is the culmination of Jamison's

journey and desire to create a unique setting to help teens and their families recover from the destructive

effects of behavioral health issues.
