Deaths, hospitalizations, and emergency room visits due to medication or drug overdose, have become a growing public health concern. Getting sober and staying in recovery is a challenge for many. William Cope Moyers understands both sides of the problem. William was an addict and alcoholic who turned his life around and has now worked for over 28 years at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation. He discusses his addiction journey and why there is more to recovery than simply staying sober. William is the vice president of public affairs and community relations at the Hazelden Betty Ford. He was a journalist for CNN, and is the son of journalist and former White House Press Secretary, Bill Moyers, and journalist, Judith Moyers. William has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, and National Public Radio. His work has been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Newsweek. He has written four books, including Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption. His new book is, Broken Open: What Painkillers taught Me About Life and Recovery.
