SUBSTANCE ABUSE SPEAKERS - NIC & DAVID SHEFF

The descent into addiction looks different to a father who watches his son succumb to drugs than the son who falls from grace. David and Nicholas Sheff chronicle their journey in a riveting personal story of one addiction, two worlds in The New York Times bestsellers Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines and Beautiful Boy: A Father’s Journey Through His Son’s Addiction. Together, or alone, they share their searingly honest, yet extraordinarily hopeful story, revealing that caring about an addict is as complex, fraught, and debilitating as the addiction itself. |
