However, unused and expired medications must be properly discarded so that they do not pose a risk to others. According to the National Community Pharmacists Association, an estimated 200 million pounds of unused or expired prescription drugs are stored in medicine cabinets across America. This situation provides easy access and an opportunity for the abuse of these medications by others for whom they were not intended. In LA County from 2000 to 2009, there were 8,265 drug-related deaths. Public health statistics show that 61 percent of those deaths involved a commonly abused prescription or over-the-counter drug. Of note, nearly 75 percent of residents who misuse prescription drugs obtain them from relatives or friends. Deaths and illnesses caused by the abuse of prescription opioids are of national concern. The number of deaths each year from prescription opioids is now greater than the deaths from heroin, cocaine, and benzodiazepine drugs combined.  * Your local Pharmacy  * https://www.stericycle.com/en-us/solutions/specialty-services/seal-send-medication-in-home-medication-return *https://www.safemedicinedisposal.org/mailback-envelopes

Lauren Merceron shared her struggles with dyslexia and how she’s learned to embrace her unique challenges and value her unique strengths. I loved how she talked about making art to feed her soul and thinking of showing and selling it as secondary. It’s easy to get bogged down in the business and admin side of art, so that was a good reminder. Lauren Merceron is an elementary art teacher and artist based outside Atlanta, Georgia. She celebrates her language processing disorders because this unique wiring helps her visualize information stronger than imaginable. Feeling with lines, touching with color, bring all the shapes together. Her art advocates for people who suffer from dyslexia. She says: “For so long I felt stupid, I tried to overcompensate, suppress my feelings, and pretending that I was ‘normal.’ Children that suffer from language processing disorders should never feel this way. Through my work I communicate the unique messages of the dyslexic brain. My work is a form of meditation that helps to quiet the noise in my mind. The constant push and pull between right and left brain. The battle between conforming and being free.” Blog post with more links and images www.laurenmerceron.com @laurenmerceronart on instagram . . . Submit to our Open Call!

Notes: Meg was recalling the Gobstopper story from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory from memory, so not all the details are accurate when held up next to the film. We say "Neverending" but it's actually "Everlasting" gobstopper. Also, the "It had to be a child" moment happened in the elevator, not in the office. The main idea does hold up though, that it inspired us and helped us frame the way we viewed our organization through that small moment in the film. It's still one of our favorites.  Thanks to our musical friends!
