"Proponents of marijuana are promoting a 'drug' lifestyle, claiming it is so safe that it can be used before going to work in the morning and cause no harm," said Mr. Menz. Mr. Fent added: "Over 90 percent of our clients for heroin abuse report that they used marijuana prior to heroin. Marijuana is a drug and if we legalize it, we are making the concession as a society that we can't control illegal substances."
"We are pleased that our executives are recognized as experts in their field and are interviewed on such popular programs as Dr. Kell's 'Mind, Brain and Body' show," said Paul Howarth, co-founder and CEO. "Mr. Menz and Mr. Fent both have extensive experience in addiction rehabilitation services."
