This is the fifth installment in a seven-part series of Webcasts that will discuss and illuminate key issues related to the 2001 Recovery Month observance. Our host will be Ivette Torres, Director of Communcations and External Liaison, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Panelists include: Sis Wenger, Executive Director, National Association for Children of Alcoholics; Dr. Donna Mogan, Psychotherapist for Eagle Wing Enterprises, Inc.; Don Coyhis, President/CEO, White Bison, Inc.; and Steve Hornberger, Director of Behavioral Health Services at the Child Welfare League of America.

Today there are an estimated 28.6 million Americans who are children of alcoholics; nearly 11 million are under age 20. Many of these children and young people are exposed to chaotic family environments that offer little stability or emotional support. And many will develop serious behavioral and emotional problems that will keep them from living happy and normal lives. Tune in to this webcast to learn about new science-based approaches to helping these often overlooked victims of addiction.

This program will focus on effective, culturally appropriate, and science-based approaches to helping these often overlooked victims of addiction.
