Drug
Wars: Who Will Cry for Our Children describes a disaster, one that knows no social,
economic or ethnic boundaries. Nationwide, it affects tens of
millions of people each year. |
|
What is this disaster? It is the
tragedy of drug-afflicted babies. These are children whose
mothers abused tobacco, alcohol or other drugs during pregnancy.
If these children survive their first year (and many do not)
they will bear emotional and physiological if not physical
scars. They are called "million-dollar babies" because
of the cost associated with supporting them through infancy and
childhood right up through their adult years. Many will wind up
in prison—or worse.Whoever you are and whatever your
community, you will be drawn in by this deeply moving video. But
rather than despair, you will see that there is a solution to
drug abuse—and that you and your community can truly make a
difference. |
What
this program teaches:
 |
Different
drugs affect different systems in the body—but all pose
grave dangers to an unborn child. |
|
|
Tobacco
and alcohol are no less a concern than meth, heroin,
cocaine, or other illegal drugs. |
|
|
You
can build two libraries with what it takes to sustain a
"million dollar baby" for a year. |
|
|
These
children face a future of severe developmental problems,
menial jobs, trouble with the law, and the cycle of drug
abuse. |
|
|
Drug
addiction is a family disease, not just the mother’s
problem. |
|
|
The
solution will not come easy because the problem has built
up over generations. |
|
|
Discover
a proven solution for communities to overcome drug abuse. |
|
|
Compassion,
Resolve and Courage can lead to positive change for you
and your community. Presents actual success stories. |
|
|
Everyone
will learn something from this video—guaranteed! |
