He is clean cut, well spoken, and a recovering heroin addict.  His story will amaze you, as will his ability to keep fighting every day of his life.  His is not a unique story of addiction, but it is a heroic story of recovery.

She is a nurse, a mother, a daughter and a sister.   She spends her professional life taking care of others, but was totally unprepared for the lesson she learned about what opioid addiction does to a family first hand. 

She works with nurses fighting for a chance to keep their jobs, get their lives back, and live their lives.  RAMP is the bridge for many addicted nursing professionals, each with a story and a desire to get back to normal life. 

These, and other life stories, will be shared in the NJ Chapter's Fall Conference on September 10, in Iselin New Jersey at the Renaissance Hotel.   Doors open at 8:30 and the conference begins at 9:00 am.   This is a unique conference that will change forever how you see your clients, your siblings, your children and yourself.   Please join us this Saturday.  We look forward to seeing you there.
