Live Broadcast from Oriana House

This spring, activists are trying to convince Ohioans that it's time to change drug policies, and offer more options for drug treatment. On Friday, March 29th, 90.3 WCPN's morning team hit the road for an hour-long broadcast from Oriana House, a treatment center in the heart of Midtown Cleveland. Through a series of stories and interviews, we explored the nature of addiction, heard who qualifies for treatment, discussed the Ohio Drug Treatment Initiative, and talked about how Greater Cleveland treats people grappling with substance abuse. Many people imagine recovering addicts as physically and mentally broken, but the reality of their situations may surprise you.
