On the challenge of recovering
behind the walls:
I’m a counselor in a prison
in Texas that has a rehabilitation program for men with substance abuse
problems.
In response to a letter that
appeared in the January 1999 NA Way, you gave several reasons why an NA
member serving on an H&I panel was discouraged from giving his personal
phone number to an incarcerated addict. Here’s another reason:
It is a rule of the Texas
Department of Criminal Justice that no visitor is allowed to exchange personal
information with our incarcerated men and women. If a visitor is
caught passing information, he or she is removed from the visitation list.
I’m sorry that an incarcerated
addict was hurt by this policy, but it is for the safety of everyone involved.
Sincerely,
Edna Forbes, LCDC, ADC
