Narconon Drug Rehab students visited a local nature trail this weekend as they practiced lessons learned at Narconon about taking responsibility for their environment.
Paint brush in hand, they helped paint the offices and later cleaned the park area.
“We feel we haven’t completed our job unless we not only get our customers off drugs, but on the road to a happy productive life,” comments Ms. Mary Rieser, Executive Director of Narconon Drug Rehab GA. “Part of making them happy, valuable and productive citizens is covered in the last part of their program, The Way To Happiness Course.
“In this course they learn a non-religious moral code, in The Way To Happiness, written by L. Ron Hubbard, which, if followed, can lead them on The Way to Happiness. ‘Safeguard and Improve Your Environment’ is one of the precepts learned, and helping at the local nature trail was not only fun, but educational.”
The Nature Center is a nonprofit 501-c3 organization established by community volunteers in 1990 to develop, improve, and preserve twenty-two acres of DeKalb County’s Dunwoody Park as a natural classroom for environmental education.
The park features a wetland boardwalk; woodland and streamside trails; display gardens; a picnic meadow; a treehouse classroom pavilion; and a shaded playground.
“We all had a lot of fun at the nature center,” comments Ms. Rieser. “Beating drug addiction is not just stopping using drugs. It’s about learning to live life responsibly, learning to live drug-free, learning to appreciate life.”
