Alcohol – Legal and Lethal, What Can We Do To Protect Our Community And Families? Part 1

Cocaine, Heroine, Methamphetamine, PCP are all illegal and destructive to communities and families. Alcohol is Legal, cuts across economic, educational and class lines and has a much greater impact on society than all of these other drugs.

Host Keith Brown El begins a two part show about the effects of alcohol on and in our community. He will be talking with Molly O’Neil, a clinician and Gordon Stubblefield, a prevention specialist with First Call KC.
