Should addicts be put in jail or prison because they're addicts? ...it's not that these things don't become addictions.
Ever wondered if locking up addicts really solves anything? In this eye-opening episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', host Monty Dale Meyer teams up with co-hosts Toni and Bruce to tackle the tough question: should addicts be jailed or rehabilitated? They dig deep into the criminal justice system's approach to addiction, questioning if incarceration actually addresses the root problems. The conversation doesn't stop there.
They also explore the effectiveness of behavior modification versus holistic rehabilitation, emphasizing that addiction is a disease needing treatment, not punishment. The hosts touch on the religious aspects of recovery and discuss free treatment centers like Free by the Sea. To wrap things up, Recovery Recording Artist Jeff Bates shares his powerful song, 'One Second Chance', reminding us all that everyone deserves another shot at life.
This episode is packed with raw insights and heartfelt discussions that will leave you thinking long after it’s over.
