Committee on Drugs Use

Family Supports: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Suzanne Tackaberry:

The term "addiction does not discriminate" comes to mind because of my experiences in Ashleigh House. We had professionals, solicitors and midwives. We also had mothers who were lone parents and mothers who were not lone parents. They had husbands, families and homes. There was a wide variety of women during my time in Ashleigh House. For me, addiction does not discriminate.
