Several of the nation's leading experts on drug and alcohol addiction aim to help Americans understand addiction as a treatable brain disease. One in four Americans has a family member who is struggling with addiction, yet fewer than ten percent of those individuals are receiving treatment. Promising developments in the field combine with personal stories that humanize the reality of the struggle.
