"For the second family meeting my kids invited a few of their friends. We had a great time; we still didn't finish the first discussion. My kid's friends invited their parents for the third meeting and we had even a greater time discussing these issues as a neighborhood."

Helen N., Mesa, AZ (a single mom with teens)

"I wanted to drop to you a quick note regarding your Family Action Training Manual. Normally, when I'm handed any kind of training manual, I'll spend about ten to fifteen minutes quickly going through the information. With your manual I started looking through it and ended up reading it from cover to cover."

I found your handbook to be concise, easy-to-read, and coming at the most important concepts regarding kids and drug abuse from a totally new and different perspective. It's quite simply like nothing I have read before. Your departure from traditional paradigms regarding kids and substance abuse is refreshing."

"I am already using your manual with families that I work with."

Mick, You helped my sister and I discover that my 19-year-old nephew was a small time drug user and peddler. Using the techniques of the Family Action Training Plan and with the help of your personal coaching we are now on the journey of recovery and family support and encouragement. Thanks so much.

Mick, I used drugs when I was a teen and into my early 20's. It was hard to quit but I did it. Now I have teenage kids of my own and they are experimenting. When I found the Family Action Training Plan I was relieved because I discovered the way I could talk about drugs with my own kids. Thank you very much. May God bless you in your work.

Mick, Your plan has great Karma.

Mick, as a member of the Black community here in Phoenix I am always suspect of a white guys remedy for our problems. This Family Action Training Plan should be used in every home, everywhere, regardless of race or background. Good work and keep it up. God Bless.

". . . A death of a dear friend caused me to ponder and reflect upon some of my priorities. During the dark moments in my mind of mulling over the passing of my friend I picked up the Kids Against Drugs Family Action Training Plan. I thumbed through it and something caught my attention, the plain and simple way in which this manual was written and how it was laid out really drew me in."

". . . As I read through the manual I felt so strongly about the format it presents that my young children will be able to learn and benefit greatly from its incorporation in to our weekly family meetings."

I am so excited to discover your website. I have told all my friends at school about it. I can hardly wait to see what else you are going to do.

Jenny A.  St. Louis, Mo

What a cool website. When are you starting the Kids Club? I'll start it at my school. Let me know.

Karin M.  Omaha, Nebraska

". . . I believe your 'whole family' approach is the best way to reach the young people who are being so overexposed to the world of drug use and abuse. In fact I believe it has such power that it is the only way that we can stop this fast moving storm of illegal and addictive drugs among our families here in Georgia. Your 'Family Council Meeting' outline is unique and wonderful and I believe it can be a very valuable tool for families."

Mick, I love your sense of humor. This stuff is fun and my kids love the T-shirts. Keep up the good work and don't ever quit.

Glory O.  Long Beach, CA

Mick, years ago my husband bought a T-shirt from you at a truck stop. We lost track of you. Am I glad to find you again while I was surfing the Internet. I look forward to using the Family Action training Plan and Membership in the Campaign. Heaven knows we sure need it.

Becky C.  Rochester, N.Y.

Mick, what a breath of fresh air this is. A great program to help families that doesn't come from the mind numbing machinery of the government, school or church. Here you are struggling to put this extremely valuable program out. Everyone needs this it's so wonderful for it to come from a real DAD and Grandfather who has overcome tremendous hardship. I wish you would tell the whole world your fascinating story. Here is my hundred dollars for the membership. It's worth it. God Bless You Mick.

Marie P.  Gilbert, AZ

Mick, I love the Family Action Training Plan, it's great. I can hardly wait for the Spanish version to come out. Please notify me as I have many friends and family that will join at that time.

Darcy G.  Houston, TX

Thanks for all the hours you put in to help parents and children live fuller lives. I appreciate your time Michael.
