Our kids deserve much more intensive education than I can provide, but what I do is much better than nothing, right.
Picture a retired DEA agent using his experience to guide kids away from drugs. That's Rocky Heron for you. In this episode of 'High Truths on Drugs and Addiction', Rocky shares his journey from a DEA Special Agent to a passionate advocate for youth drug prevention. He’s the brain behind 'I Choose My Future', a presentation that’s reached over 165,000 kids in 15 countries since 2007.
Rocky’s unique approach combines real-life stories and hard facts to help young people make informed choices. Rocky’s chat with Dr. Roneet Lev covers his years investigating prescription drug abuse and his interactions with the medical community. He also talks about the pressing need for prevention education, especially with the opioid crisis and the legalization of marijuana. Rocky emphasizes the role of parents in fostering open communication and trust with their children.
He believes that while his efforts are significant, a broader, more intensive education system is crucial. This episode is a goldmine for anyone invested in drug prevention and education. Rocky’s stories and insights offer a fresh perspective on how to engage young minds and steer them away from addiction. Tune in to understand the power of prevention and the critical role of community in battling substance abuse.
