john de miranda, president and ceo, stepping stone, san diego, california. william lossiah-bratt, board of directors, southeastern regional representative, faces and voices of recovery, cherokee, north carolina. dr. clark, why should we be concerned about ethnic and racial differences within the addiction and recovery field, as well as other differences? well, one of the things that we want to make sure is that people who have substance use problems are able to recover and that materials that we use can assist them in that process. and so, you know, there are differences associated with cultural values and beliefs, starting from how one physiologically responds to a particular substance misuse to how certain substances are used in a cultural context. so if we're going to facilitate recovery, we need to understand the language, the beliefs, the social context associated with those substances. and that will help us facilitate that person's recovery by showing that we understand the life experiences that they have associated with their use of substances. and i

stepping stone came into existence 35 years ago because gay men and lesbian women in san diego could not get into those recovery resources that were available then. or if they could, their experience was negative. so a number of people came together and said, well, let's start something for our community, and that was really the beginning of stepping stone, and i think that is true for a lot of these kind of culturally specific treatment programs. idiosyncrasies, sure. life in an alcohol and drug treatment program for the lgbt community is very different in many ways because the issues are very different. for example, when we built the facility 10 years ago, we had this very nice staircase that was going up to the second level. and our then ceo said to the architect, "i want that staircase to look like a woman's high heel shoe." it does, and that's one thing that is what makes stepping stone different from other treatment programs. so they adapted to their aesthetic. exactly, exactly. and the jokes are different and the interactions are often very different. and i suspect that that m

you can when stepping stone support at the margaret thatcher foundation. it's an essential document and want everyone who is concerned about the coming election to read it and think it. it best expresses what i think is a core precept of thatcherism that british decline was a punishment for socialism, not imperialism but socialism. and conservative policy was developed around a strategy that john hopkins set out in the paper which not only helped thatcher achieve victory but led directly to almost every key thatcher i perform. now, he wrote in steppingstones stepping stones, events continue to reveal the true morality of the true left but the real point, socialism is less moral than capitalism rather than as immoral, has not been made. and this is the point he thinks needs to go out to the electorate, that it is not we're proposing an immoral but technicality, a moral as well as superior solution. he proposed the electorate could be divided into three categories, doers, thinkers and fielders. think about that for a minute. voters fall into three categories

so we do advocacy, as well as treatment in stepping stone. well, one of the greatest things, and i think from the federal government perspective, has taken an approach not only that the treatment is one of the ingredients for recovery, so many doors for recovery. and creating an ecosystem in our communities, making responsible communities that, you know, recovery is important and that the person who is in recovery to feel part of the ecosystem, the community. and that is a great thing. i think now the emphasis is not only treatment is important, but what happens after treatment. and that is the federal government, one of the blessings that they have done. but i think we need to disseminate to state government, it's still not happening. they are paying for treatment, but what happens after treatment? they are not paying for the recovery. they are not paying for recovery. they don't see the outcomes. and i don't think they- paying, but i think we have to create this ecosystem in our community, make them part of, the community is responsible for
