"It’s an epidemic… spreading across the country from west to east and is near the top of the Office of National Drug Control Policy’s priority list. Methamphetamine kills people every day and knows no boundaries. During this hour-long broadcast, we’ll hear from law enforcement about the realities of fighting a drug that is “homegrown”--made using over-the-counter cold medicines and dangerous household chemicals. We’ll also see how community involvement can make a difference. One grass-roots program that began in America’s heartland is now a model for the rest of the country. Find out the signs of meth use and meth production so you can help take back your community from this ravaging drug epidemic. Finally, hear from a recovering meth addict about her struggle and ultimate triumph over one of the most addicting drugs ever. Together, we can help melt the ice!"
