About Learn to Cope: Learn to Cope is a peer-led support network for families dealing with addiction and recovery. Young people and communities need to be educated on opioid and prescription drug use. It doesn't matter what your zip code, education level, or income is; addiction knows no boundaries, it does not discriminate. Addiction can begin with a legitimate prescription or an experiment. No matter how well you parented your kids, they can make terrible decisions at times that can ultimately ruin their future, many of them didn't realize what they were dealing with when they tried it, they know now. Learn to Cope collaborates with many schools, hospitals, community coalitions, law enforcement and fire departments, as well as district attorneys and politicians to plan and facilitate local forums to address the public health crisis of opioid addiction that our country is facing today. Addiction is no longer only a family crisis, it is a community crisis as well. www.Learn2cope.org<http://recoverproject.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4d5e4585e77abc9ca6b56ccfd&id=52974f5bc5&e=3751dfbcd4>
