S7E15 - The Best of Soda City

Episode 14: The Best of Soda City

As the stigma around mental health is decreasing… the discussion of what causes mental struggles is expanding. Research and awareness on the role that substance abuse plays in mental health struggles shows family members of addicts can also be negatively affected during recovery. But family members can also help the whole family heal. In this edition of Columbia Chronicles, Adianna Macklin takes us through her father’s struggles with addiction and recovery… and how it’s impacted her, and her sister.

Produced and edited by Molly Stover; final production by Ava A. Strauss
