The LGU (Local Government Unit) in our place has a noble advocacy by reaching out and helping people who truly have the desire to get their system clean of drugs and the deadly heroin.  It is truly a painful experience seeing loved ones so sick and doing nothing about their drug dependency to the point that they have to steal to be able to sustain the need to have a shot.  Seeking professional help is the best thing to do and removing an addict from his or her home will help them break this bad pattern like what the Clarke’s couple has done with their son Jason.   He was sent to a heroin detox rehab treatment centers because he has became a perennial headache and they wanted to deal with the issue earlier.  Jason’s willingness to rehabilitate made it easier for them to convince him to start the process of detoxification.

Hopefully, once he comes out clean, he will never go back to heroin again and he will continue to avail of the out patient program where counselling is offered.
