Narconon of Georgia to Celebrate Narconon Day

Narconon of Georgia, a non-12 step drug recovery program, announces its celebration of Narconon Day on February 19, 2008.

February 19 is designated as Narconon Day as it was that day in 1966 when William Benitez founded Narconon while he was an inmate in the Arizona State Prison.

Mr. Benitez successfully conquered an 18 year heroin habit, through information he learned in Fundamentals of Thought, by L. Ron Hubbard. He wanted to share his success with others, and with permission started Narconon, the non-12 step drug rehab program in the prison.  Since its inception, Narconon has continued to grow as a network throughout the world.

The Narconon program has since evolved to include a body detoxification through a sauna and exercise program that helps eliminate or reduce cravings. After the sauna program, the client learns those life skills essential to success in life and the ability to stay clean.  The Narconon program a non-12 step drug treatment boasts a 76% success rate (based on a two year follow-up).

Narconon centers worldwide are inviting all past graduates to Narconon Friday night graduation on February 15, 2008. In addition to the usual acknowledgement of students who finish courses and those who have graduated the full program, special acknowledgements will be given to the those very special early graduates.

One of the original students who graduated the program, Gordy Weinand, said recently, “Little did I know that over the decades our little group of twenty drug addicts looking for help with drug addiction would grow to an international organization spanning six continents and 35 countries.”

Mr. Weinand currently works for Narconon of Georgia in Public Relations.
