There are several incidents and stories that we hear because we are such a small community. These are the things I would like our program to prevent and fix. The program will be called Allow Life to Thrive, Don't Drink and Drive. It will be a program that meets once a week, for six months. This will give us plenty of time to help rehabilitate victims of alcoholism and get them back to their normal daily lives, without alcohol taking over. We all know a family member, friend or acquaintance who has suffered from alcoholism, whether they like to admit it or not. Many people suffering from alcoholism don't get the help they need, which creates problems in relationships, friendships and everyday life. This is because alcoholics only want one thing, another drink. Together we can help Licking County and bring people's lives back to reality, and allow them to have more in their day than alcohol addiction. Overall, the problems we face as a community not only affect alcoholics, their families and friends, but also affect all other people they pass and encounter while driving while intoxicated. These things I have stated are what I have high hopes my program can prevent and put an end to
