Florida Alliance for Drug Endangered Children

Last week, the Attorney General's office, and Governor Jeb Bush, created the Florida Alliance for Drug Endangered Children, in conjunction with the Department(s) of law Enforcement, Health Children and Families , as well as the federal Drug Enforcement Administration. This Alliance was formed to protect children exposed to parents, or caregivers, that routinely use or manufacture drugs. These children are at great risk for chemical exposure, and injury, when they are exposed to makeshift labs, facing injury or death, from explosions; they are exposed to razor blades or dangerous electrical wires in the production or use of illegal drugs. These vulnerable children are also exposed to excessive violence from physical and/or sexual abuse from these drug induced individuals. I'm sure our local sheriff's office will be able to benefit greatly from this most worthwhile alliance to protect children. Thanks to Attorney General Charlie Crist and Governor Bush for the vision in creating this Florida Alliance for Drug Endangered Children to protect our most precious resource, our children.
