Acknowledgments Many people deserve thanks for their help in creating this book: My wife Susan, who gets the gold medal for her love, intelligence, humor, patience, and honesty. My children Shari, Debby, and Danny for their love, intelligence, respect, as well as the ability to keep their father humble. My mother and father, who taught me about the joy of living and learning, about courage and commitment, and about believing that you can survive anything. John Meeks, M.D., for being a selfless and giving teacher and mentor and for providing helpful comments about this book. Richard Schwartz, M.D., for his commitment to research, inspiration, energy and persistence. The Psychiatric Institute of Montgomery County, Straight Incorporated, Whale's Tales and Karma House in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Karma Academy for Boys and Girls, and the Fairbridge Residential Program, for the spirit and support they give to troubled teenagers and their families. These excellent programs are "co-authors" of this book. Thomas Poon, C.A.C., and Debby Riley, M.A., who by force of their personalities, professional efforts, and friendship are great healers and teachers. Miriam Polster, Ph.D., Joseph Zinker, Ph.D., Sonia Nevis, Ph.D., and Maxwell Boverman, M.D., who teach that earning the qualities of honesty and courage takes hard work, creativity, and playfulness. The late Ken Williams, M.D., who was a pioneer in teaching psychiatric trainees to appreciate the illness of chemical dependence. Lenore Franzen, Cynthia Peterson, and James Bitney of the Johnson Institute for their editorship, their creativity, and their infinite patience. Carole Remboldt of the Johnson Institute, Susan Barnhill, C.A.C., and Paul Henry, M. Div., who were responsible for the genesis of this book.

Peter Luongo, Ph.D., who, while creating this country's most dynamic public mental health program for children and adolescents, took the time to comment on the shaping of this book. Todd Estroff, Ph.D., for his ideas and teachings about adolescent chemical dependence and dual diagnosis. Vernon Johnson, Terence Gorski, Stephanie Brown, Gordon Marlatt, Sharon Wegscheider-Cruse, and Claudia Black for their pioneering ideas in the field of recovery. The families who volunteered their time to share with me their stories of recovery. Their sharing has influenced this book. Finally, thanks to the many teens and families who have the courage to seek help. Their patience and willingness to be vulnerable are more than admirable. I thank them for teaching me how to help them find contentment and integrity.
