Greetings,
Sure hope that you are enjoying a glorious Spring. We see
evidence of new life, or the re-appearance of the
once-familiar, all around us. Prevention-related news also
reminds us that "to everything there is a season" and a hope
for better days ahead. We are reminded that news reports are
not a series of isolated events, but that they are in fact
"connected." This is the fifth in a series of experimental
newsletters, and, as always, we welcome your response. Let's
stay connected!

The Newsclip File |
| |
 Alcohol and other drugs, substance abuse and addiction,
prevention and treatment appear in print on a fairly regular
basis. We don't all read the same newspapers and magazines, so
some of the reports escape our attention. This monthly feature
captures some recent items.
