Hello,
My name is Matt Raven and I am an intern for the newly launched DUIFoundation.org a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. I currently help maintain and write content for the DUI Foundation to educate and prevent against the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol and other impairing substances. The DUI Foundation website contains a database of knowledge covering health issues, legal information, current news and events updates, information details on support programs, as well as research and many other helpful resources.
At DUIFoundation.org, we hope to reinforce the idea that a single drunk driving accident can permanently have a negative impact on you, passengers in your vehicle, and anyone else involved in the disaster.
I am asking you to please support our cause and spread our message through adding a single-text link (titled “New York DUI” with the URL: http://www.duifoundation.org/newyork) or short blurb on your blog which links back to our site. We could offer an entry of your site into our care directory in return. This will allow our viewers to be directed to your site’s information. Please help us in our mission to spread a message and prevent life-altering decisions.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing back from you!
Best Regards,
Matt Raven
Hi, I’m John and I think the perception people have about alcohol and other addictive drugs is wrong. Alcoholism isn’t a complicated subject that people make it out to be. Many of the so-called experts cloud the problem in such a way that they even confuse themselves. The real truth is that even the so-called experts don’t understand drug addiction.
Matt, best wishes on you site: http://www.duifoundation.org/newyork. I trust you will be successful in your mission to educate anbd server those struggling with alcohol and its devastating effects. The good news is that there are many sites like yours offereing support and guidance. Michael
John, thank you for your comments. While you are indeed correct that there is a lot of misunderstanding of the disease of addiction, the good news this that fora such as this and many, many other sites offer a variety of voices to help clarify the problem.
My opinion is that the internet is another leap in the ability of mankind to learn and to expand its consciousness – in doing so there is a lot of ‘nonsense’, of course, however the dialogue of many voices, many ‘mental models’ – may serve, I trust, to help others to a fuller and more complete understanding of addiction with all its complexities. Michael
