“My dad never did a drug in his life, but he sold them. Got my mom addicted to crack when she was pregnant. As a teenager, I had to grow up real fast. I joined a gang to get that family bond, but they make you do things you don't want to do. I got caught. Drug court saved my life by sending me to a rehab that gave me a lot of new coping skills.”
