On Monday, Aug. 9, KNWA featured Youth Bridge as part of its “Doing Good” series. Laine Baker interviewed Adam Sieber, who is enrolled in Youth Bridge’s Substance Abuse outpatient program and Washington County Drug Court. Laine also spoke with Saima Chauhan, Substance Abuse Residential Treatment Director, and Lori Parker, a Youth Bridge/Drug Court Counselor. This is a great piece that shows how we help young people come to terms with addiction before its too late.
