‘Occasional drug use killed her’: Mom shares story of daughter’s fatal opioid use

BY RICK WEST

For Reflejos

An accidental drug overdose took the life of Jennifer Flory’s daughter, Alison, five years ago.

Flory said Alison’s situation wasn’t what people might think, not that it matters to Flory what anyone thinks.

“My daughter was a normal student. She was mostly happy. She never had a rock bottom or looked all strung out,” Flory said.

“Occasional drug use killed her.”

Flory is among those who have experienced a drug-related loss and will speak at the Ecker Center for Behavioral Health’s annual Overdose Awareness Day memorial at 7 p.m. Tuesday, at the center’s Renz office in Elgin. Tuesday is International Overdose Awareness Day. Flory hopes talking about her daughter will help other families who feel there is a stigma attached to the overdose death of their loved one.

“I don’t feel like I have anything to be ashamed of, because it could literally happen to anybody, and the parents who think it couldn’t are living in denial,” she said.

Flory, who lives in Sugar Grove, said she knew her daughter had used marijuana in high school and had tried ecstasy at parties and concerts. Flory discouraged the drug use and had her daughter tested for drugs from time to time.

“I never thought, ‘Oh my God, my child’s gonna be an addict and she might die.’ She’s just doing what everyone else is doing and it’s not ideal, but she’ll grow out of it,” Flory said.

When Alison was 16, she broke up with her high school boyfriend. He told her he couldn’t live without her and soon after killed himself. The trauma and guilt were overwhelming for Alison.

“Some friends offered her some pills to ease her pain,” Flory said. The pills turned out to be Vicodin, an opioid painkiller, and benzodiazepines, a type of prescription sedative.

“I didn’t know anything,” Flory said. “I didn’t know what an opioid was, but that’s what started the addiction.”

Alison stopped using drugs for a time and attended college, but stresses there would lead to her using again. In 2015, she was finally ready for real help and went to a drug-treatment center in Florida.

Treatment initially went well until Alison fell into a trap known as patient brokering, her mother said. That’s where less-reputable treatment centers unethically lure patients away from their current treatment with inducements like more free time, better amenities and sometimes cash kickbacks from their insurance money. The patients go for the inducement and end up in centers with no real treatment or oversight. Alison cycled through a couple of centers.

On Oct. 14, 2016, she died in a sober home in Florida after taking cocaine laced

JENNIFER FLORY lost her daughter,Alison, to a drug overdose she suffered while seeking treatment for opioid addiction. Flory now works at the Ecker Center for Behavioral Health, which will hold its annual Overdose Awareness Day Memorial event on Tuesday.

with carfentanil, a synthetic opioid about 10,000 times more potent than morphine and 100 times more potent than fentanyl.

Her story and the subsequent prosecution of the sober home owner made national news.

“That’s the tragedy of it,” Jennifer Flory said. “Here’s a girl who grew up in the suburbs, started using some drugs and didn’t know how to stop and when she tried to get help, got sucked into this whole alternate reality (of patient brokering) that nobody knew existed.”

Alison’s opioid overdose was part of a continuing national trend. Fatal drug overdoses increased for the 11th consecutive year in 2020, rising nearly 30% during the pandemic. Over 70% of the more than 93,000 deaths were caused by opioid overdoses. In Illinois, nearly 3,000 residents died from an opioid-related overdose in 2020, 32% higher than in 2019.

“It’s a trend that just keeps getting worse as time goes on,” said Jim Brunetti, clinical director at the Ecker Center. “And it’s not just people abusing and misusing opioids, but it’s people dying from accidental overdoses, mostly because of fentanyl.”

Brunetti said isolation and stress from the pandemic has exacerbated an already bad problem.

The Ecker Center for Mental Health merged with Renz Addiction Counseling Center last year, becoming the Ecker Center for Behavioral Health. Brunetti said the center offers an outpatient program with counseling and a medication-assisted treatment program using Suboxone, which helps

eliminate drug withdrawal and cravings. The center also distributes and educates on the use of Narcan nasal spray, which can counteract the life-threatening effects of an opioid overdose.

“As bad as things are, we’re doing our best to make sure we’re offering help in the community,” Brunetti said.

He said Tuesday’s gathering is about healing.

JENNIFER FLORY lost her daughter, Alison, to an overdose after a battle with opioid addiction. Alison was a graduate of Kaneland High School and was seeking treatment in Florida in 2016 when she took cocaine laced with carfentanil and died.

“It’s a really meaningful event for many reasons,” he said. “We have people who have lost family members who come out, and it’s a good chance for them to feel connected to other people who have lost somebody.”

Flory and others who have experienced the loss of a loved one to overdose will speak, as well as overdose survivors who are using their experience to help others. There will also be a candlelight vigil, a reading of names of people who died of an overdose and a walk around the Serenity Path, which will be adorned with memorial signs for people who died from overdoses. Overdose reversal training and free Narcan kits will be available.

Similar events will be held Tuesday throughout the suburbs. A memorial hosted

by Live4Lali and Northern Illinois Recovery Community Organization will take place at 5 p.m. at 202 S. Genesee St., Waukegan. Path to Recovery Foundation will host “Forever In Our Hearts” at 6 p.m. at the Naperville Grand Pavilion, 912 Honorary Sindt Memorial Court.

Flory encourages people not to be ashamed and to share their stories, knowing that sharing hers has led to positive change.

“Because I shared my story about Alison, a bill (Illinois HB 4949) was passed about patient brokering and targeting individuals in need of addiction services,” she said.

“Now other people’s lives are protected as a result,” Flory said. “I know Alison would think that is really cool.”

The College of Lake County is planning a $50 million bond issue to fund projects that include converting the former Lowe’s store in Gurnee into an advanced technology center and building an outdoor sports complex.

Proceeds from the bond issue, which is a form of borrowing, wouldn’t be in hand until late this year. But the sale by the Grayslake-based community college would be a milestone for two major initiatives.

The proposal includes $20 million for the tech center; $10 million for an outdoor sports complex; and $9.3 million for deferred maintenance at its three campuses. It allow would the college to reimburse itself up to $10 million for spending in advance of the bond sale.

College officials in September approved a resolution to buy the shuttered Lowe’s home improvement store situated on 14 acres at 7735 Grand Ave. In December, CLC officials announced the intent to create a center to teach skills to strengthen Lake County’s manufacturing workforce.

CLC President Lori Suddick said growth opportunities are being limited because manufacturers can’t find skilled workers.

“They only see that as continuing,” she said before the board vote. “So, it’s imperative we get that (advanced technology center) in place, and that’s included in this bond.”

The 142,000-square-foot center will allow CLC to expand manufacturing-focused programs. Welding, fabrication and industrial maintenance will be first. Computer numerical control, robotics and other programs are planned for future phases.

According to the college, one in seven jobs in Lake County is in the manufacturing sector, but the number could be higher if workforce development kept pace with demand. The intent of the tech center is to close that gap. Construction is expected to begin next week and be complete by summer 2022.

“The ATC is a huge investment which comes at a critical time.” said Kevin Considine, president and CEO of Lake County Partners, the county’s development arm.

Local manufacturing growth has been strong, and there is increasing awareness of the value of careers in fields like automation and robotics, he added.

An outdoor sports complex is the second-largest project on the list.

“This college has not invested in its athletics facilities for a very long time,” Suddick said.

“Getting defunct athletic facilities into shape that our athletes can actually play in non-flooded fields is an important aspect of that work.”

The complex would include baseball and softball fields and tennis courts on the north side of the Grayslake campus along Washington Street. Design work has not started.

COURTESY OF COLLEGE OF LAKE COUNTY

AN OUTDOOR sports complex at the College of Lake County’s main campus in Grayslake is on the list of projects to be funded with proceeds from a proposed $50 million bond issue.

More than $6.7 million of the bond funding would be used for deferred maintenance at the Grayslake campus and $2.6 million targeted for CLC’s Waukegan and Vernon Hills campuses.

A public hearing on the bond issue is scheduled for Sept. 28. The board will consider a resolution to issue the bonds on Nov. 16.

The Doc gets a boost I’m what they call immunocompromised because I had transplant surgery two years ago. That makes me susceptible to infections that can cause other diseases. I can’t be out in the sun because I am three times more likely to get skin cancer than a normal person. I am easy prey for COVID-19 or the Delta variant, so I have to stay away from unvaccinated people. So I got my two shots earlier this year, and my booster shot last week!

If you’ve gotten a shot, or two, good for you. Encourage everyone you know to do the same, especially those you love. The virus is surging today everywhere and claiming the lives of those who are not vaccinated. Unvaccinated people are taking up all the beds in hospitals. The persons dying from the virus are almost all unvaccinated Three anti-vaccine radio show hosts in Florida died from the virus in August, after telling tens of thousands of innocent people numerous times every day for a year to not take the vaccine.

No telling how many of those thousands are sick now or will be sick soon, and may possibly die.

Folks, the virus is real. To vaccinate or not vaccinate has become a life or death decision.

Choose life and vaccinate!

Guía sobre sobreellaCovid covid persistente persistente Carolina Pikakacho Fronteras de la Noticia - EFEsalud El aumento en las infecciones por el virus SARS-CoV-2 tiene como consecuencia el incremento de nuevos pacientes con COVID persistente o Long COVID. Se trata de quienes han superado la enfermedad pero siguen presentando síntomas tras su fase aguda, pasadas cuatro e incluso 12 semanas, independientemente de cómo haya sido la gravedad.

“Los pacientes que han padecido COVID-19 pueden presentar síntomas persistentes como fatiga, di%cultad respiratoria, palpitaciones, dolores musculares y articulares, cefalea, alteración del sueño y ansiedad, entre otros”, señala la doctora María de la Mota Nicolás Correa, directora territorial de Urgencias quien precisa también que la infección por el coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 puede afectar a varios órganos y ocasionar secuelas a medio y largo plazo.

En el caso de la COVID persistente resalta, a su vez, que predominan las mujeres de mediana edad, en torno a los 43 años, sin problemas de salud importantes.

La long COVID se caracteriza por la frecuente $uctuación de los síntomas, o a modo de brotes, llegando a generar discapacidad a quien lo padece, sin la existencia de una explicación por la enfermedad subyacente alternativa, subraya la doctora.

En cuanto a los síntomas, se han recogido hasta 201, según resalta la experta en Medicina General, siendo la astenia, la incapacidad, la pérdida de calidad de vida, y la fluctuación de los síntomas los más frecuentes, al tiempo que en el campo respiratorio puede persistir la disnea, la tos seca o la opresión torácica; a nivel psicológico ansiedad, fobias, apatía, trastornos del sueño o TOC; además de artralgias y mialgias, calambres musculares, odinofagia o

disfagia, disfonía, aftas bucales, acúfenos o hipoacusia, diplopía nistagmus o visión borrosa y ojo seco.

A su vez, pueden registrarse cefaleas, parestesias, anosmia/cacosmia, disgeusia, dispraxia, déficit de memoria, inestabilidad, mareo, incapacidad para concentrarse, febrícula, escalofríos, anorexia, malestar general, flatulencia, diarrea, pirosis, dispepsia, urticaria, rash, alopecia, hematomas, palpitaciones, hipertensión arterial, síncope, taquicardias, entre otros. hay un determinado porcentaje de pacientes en los que la vacuna puede provocar mejoría; sin embargo, “falta mucho por saber, tanto del perfil que presentan estos pacientes, como la duración de los efectos de la vacunación”.

Con todo ello, la doctora María de la Mota Nicolás Correa resalta la necesidad de poner en marcha atención personalizada a estos pacientes post COVID, dependiendo de las necesidades de cada uno de ellos.

En primer lugar, indica, deberá realizarse una exploración general en la que, además de la inspección, se tomarán las constantes del paciente (temperatura, presión arterial, frecuencia y ritmo cardíaco, frecuencia respiratoria); aparte de la exploración por aparatos o sistemas: auscultación pulmonar y cardíaca, exploración abdominal, de extremidades, neurológicas, oftalmológicas y otorrinolaringológicas básicas.

Dependiendo de cada caso, prosigue, será necesario solicitar una serie de pruebas complementarias, entre las que cabe destacar una analítica general que incluya hemograma, bioquímica, perfil hepático, perfil renal, hormonas tiroideas, ferritina y coagulación.

En última instancia, y para descartar posibles secuelas a nivel pulmonar, cardiovascular, neurológico o cuando la sintomatología lo requiera, el paciente será derivado a consulta del especialista correspondiente.

CDC ordena que inmigrantes que pidan la ‘green card’ deberán estar vacunados contra coronavirus

La agencia señala que se siguen los protocolos internacionales para evitar la propagación de COVID-19; por lo que USCIS exigirá a los no ciudadanos demostrar que tienen sus dosis completas de inmunización

Janine Trainor Fronteras de la Noticia - USCIS Al seguir los protocolos internacionales contra la pandemia de COVID-19, los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) ordenan que los inmigrantes que soliciten la Residencia Permanente en Estados Unidos deberán estar “completamente vacunados” contra coronavirus.

“Los solicitantes, definidos en estas Instrucciones Técnicas como personas que solicitan un ajuste de estatus para la Residencia Permanente en los EE.UU., son examinados médicamente con mucha anticipación”, se indica. “Por lo tanto, una prueba de detección de COVID-19 negativa en el momento de la evaluación médica no garantiza que el solicitante no tendrá COVID-19 en el momento en que el solicitante se convierta en Residente Permanente”.

Agrega entonces que la prueba negativa, al no ser suficiente para evitar la propagación del virus en el país, los inmigrantes deberán demostrar estar inmunizados.

“Una combinación de vacunación y prácticas de control de infecciones de rutina proporcionará la mejor protección contra COVID-19 para los solicitantes y las comunidades de EE.UU.“, expone CDC. “Estas instrucciones brindan información sobre la vacuna COVID-19 para los solicitantes”.

La nueva regla aplica para los solicitantes de todos los países y entran en vigencia a partir del 1 de octubre de 2021.

En nuevas guías para el control de la pandemia en el país, esa agencia apunta que la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) estableció como una emergencia de salud pública de interés internacional (ESPII), según el Reglamento Sanitario Internacional. “(Esto) crea desafíos únicos para la evaluación médica relacionada con la inmigración”, indica.

En las instrucciones, CDC señala que esa agencia y el Servicio de Salud Pública de los Estados Unidos (PHS) son responsables de garantizar que los no ciudadanos que ingresan a los Estados Unidos “no representen una amenaza para la salud pública”.

“El examen médico requerido por las regulaciones de los CDC es un medio de evaluar la salud de las personas que solicitan admisión o ajuste de estatus“, agrega.

Los inmigrantes deberán entregar las pruebas en su reporte médico, otorgado por expertos avalados por la oficina de Servicios de Ciudadanía e Inmigración (USCIS), la cual confirmó a este diario que dará instrucciones posteriores.

“USCIS se adhiere a las pautas de los CDC con respecto a los requisitos de vacunación para el ajuste de las solicitudes de estado”, indicó una portavoz de la agencia. “Se proporcionará más orientación en los próximos días”.

Cabe destacar que USCIS amplió recientemente de dos a cuatro años el periodo de validez del reporte médico y de vacunación para solicitantes de “green card”, debido a la pandemia de COVID-19.

LAS MAMÁS QUE TIENEN HIJOS A MAYOR EDAD SON MEJORES Una investigación dice que las mujeres que son madres a mayor edad tienen relaciones más estables, más educación y más recursos materiales.

Carolina Pikacho Fronteras de la Notiica - thehealthy.com Las mujeres están esperando más que nunca para tener hijos, lo que está cambiando familias, vidas y economías. Este cambio se debe en gran medida a que más mujeres obtienen una educación y se incorporan a la fuerza laboral, lo que hace que se casen y comiencen a tener hijos más adelante en la vida.

Las estadísticas de los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades de EE. UU. muestran que, de 2000 a 2014, la cantidad de primeros nacimientos de mujeres de 30 a 34 años aumentó un 28 por ciento, y las de más de 35 años aumentaron un 23 por ciento.

Resulta que los niños nacidos de mujeres de 35 años o más están cosechando los bene%cios, informa un nuevo estudio, realizado en la Facultad de Ciencias Empresariales y Sociales de la Universidad de Aarhus en Dinamarca.

Los autores del estudio determinaron que las madres mayores no aplicaban disciplina física y ve8rbal a sus hijos cuando tenían entre siete y 11 años. Mientras tanto, los niños de estas edades especí%cas mostraron 'menos di%cultades de comportamiento, sociales y emocionales”

regañan y disciplinan físicamente a sus hijos tanto”, señala uno de los investigadores, el profesor Dion Sommer. 'Este estilo de crianza puede contribuir así a un entorno psicosocial positivo que afecta la educación de los niños”.

La inteligencia artificial detectará el coronavirus en las superficies cotidianas

Carolina Pikacho Fronteras de la Notiica - GPS World Que la crisis de la COVID-19 ha sacudido los cimientos de la realidad tal como la conocíamos es innegable. También ha cambiado nuestra relación con los elementos más cotidianos. 'oy, casi cualquier super%cie es objeto de sospecha. Es probable que nunca volvamos a ver el pomo de una puerta con los mismos ojos. Por eso, contar con tecnología que permita detectar la presencia del Sars-CoV-2 de forma rápida y sencilla podría suponer un paso de gigante para volver a la normalidad y, sobre todo, mantenerla. En eso andan enfrascados los investigadores de la Universidad de Sevilla, que han anunciado el desarrollo de una innovadora tecnología que analiza cualquier super%cie y con%rma la presencia de zonas contaminadas. Para ello

se sirve de algoritmos de inteligencia arti%cial que analizan imágenes multiespectrales.

La tecnología, que aún se encuentra en fase de prototipado, ha reunido expertos de distintos campos, desde el mundo universitario hasta expertos en desactivación de explosivos y en defensa biológica, radiológica y química. Al %n y al cabo, aunque se libre en un silencio únicamente roto por los aplausos de cada tarde, se trata de una guerra sin cuartel. El dispositivo, según la nota de prensa de la Policía Nacional, es “un prototipo portátil que combinaría sistemas de lectura de imágenes multiespectrales, tanto en el rango óptico (de ultravioleta a infrarrojo térmico) como en el rango de terahercios, métodos de análisis mediante óptica computacional e Inteligencia Arti%cial (machine learning)!. (racias a él, se podrá analizar sin contacto super%cies

de lugares públicos, hoteles y hospitales y despejar cualquier duda sobre sus condiciones higiénicas.

La investigación, que avanzará más rápidamente gracias a las cámaras multiespectrales adquiridas ya en 2019 para proyectos de IA y tecnologías ópticas, se centra en estos momentos en la toma de imágenes de muestra de super%cies limpias y contaminadas. El SarsCoV-2 tiene un tamaño muy reducido de apenas 120 nanómetros por lo que los retos para el desarrollo de un dispositivo funcional serán formidables. No obstante, la conjunción de sistemas de aprendizaje de máquinas y ópticas avanzadas permite ser optimistas. Con un poco de suerte, los primeros resultados llegarán en el plazo de ocho meses. Además, se publicarán en abierto para ponerlos a disposición de la comunidad cientí%ca.

Caroilina Pickacho Fronteras de la Noticia - Sony Music INFINITY es el álbum más versátil de Nicky Jam hasta el momento, y lleva al oyente en un viaje a través de todos los géneros que ha dominado a lo largo de su carrera. Comenzando con una explosión, llevando su sonido de reggaetón de la vieja escuela a la vanguardia sintiéndose muy actual, el álbum luego retrata todas las diferentes facetas del arte de Nicky, desde los versos de rap crudos y reales, hasta las canciones románticas y melódicas de ritmo lento que realmente muestran su rango vocal.

INFINITY comienza con “Magnum”, una oda al reggaetón de la vieja escuela con un toque de 2021 que hará que el oyente se sumerja en el ritmo y suelte sus inhibiciones. El tema cuenta con una de las voces más prol!$cas de “la nueva” (la nueva generación del reggaetón), Jhay Cortez, quien suma su estilo inconfundible para hacer icónico este encuentro de dos generaciones.

Qué piensa Roberto Palazuelos sobre “Luis Miguel: La Serie” Carolina Pikacho, Fronteras de la Noticia - mdzol.com Roberto Palazuelos tiene un oscuro pasado con el cantante Luis Miguel del cual no ha podido desprenderse durante todos estos años y, ahora, con la serie del “Sol”, el actor no perdió la oportunidad de dar su opinión al respecto y de revelar si demandaría al cantante por usar su imagen.

Fue en el programa De primera mano donde “El Diamante Negro” mencionó todos los detalles y ahondó en que no procedería legalmente contra “Luis Mi” porque Miguel Alemán Magnani, buen amigo suyo, era un productor de la serie de Net%i( y no quería perjudicarlo.

“Ya no quise lo hice ¿para qué? No me interesa meterme en esas vibras de demandar a gente que quise en un momento y ahí está Miguelito también que le tengo mucho aprecio, tampoco tiene caso, ya pasó”, puntualizó.

De igual forma, añadió que ya no tenía relación con Luis Miguel y confesó que se lo encontró hace un tiempo en un restaurante en Miami, pero con quien sí habla aún es con su hermano Alejandro. Respecto a la serie mencionó que no tenía interés en lo que se dijera.

“Ni me interesa opinar, me da %ojera. Pienso que para que una serie pegue bien no debes de mostrarte tan perfecto, a la gente también le gusta ver las imperfecciones y ahí viene el gran é(ito. Si sigue haciendo las cosas tan perfectitas y cuidarlo tanto le van a quitar el é(ito, todos los seres humanos tenemos muchas cosas buenas y también cosas malas que la gente quiere ver”, ahondó el también empresario.

Cabe recordar que el empresario y actor Roberto Palazuelos fue uno de los mejores amigos de Luis Miguel. Sin embargo, su relación amistosa ha dado mucho de qué hablar tras la bioserie producida por Net%i( del también conocido como “Sol de Mé(ico”, ya que en ella se recreó con detalle gran parte de la juventud del intérprete de No sé tú y muchos de ellos han sido negados por el magnate, quien ha señalado en reiteradas ocasiones que el material es &cticio.

Aunque ambos personajes sostuvieron una buena amistad en su juventud, cada uno emprendió caminos distintos para alcanzar el é(ito, pues mientras Luis Miguel le dio

seguimiento a su trayectoria como intérprete musical de baladas románticas, boleros, tangos y hasta regional me(icano!

Roberto Palazuelos decidió seguir participando como actor en algunos melodramas de Televisa y comenzar su carrera como empresario del ramo hotelero en algunas playas me(icanas.

Según el sitio web Celebrity Net Worth, “El Sol de Mé(ico” posee una fortuna de 180 millones de dólares, cifra calculada con base en estimaciones de información pública o de primera mano de los famosos o sus representantes. La fortuna que ha amasado el artista incluye el dinero recabado durante sus giras y conciertos, venta

de discos a nivel mundial, así como las regalías recibidas por derechos de autor o, en el caso de Net%i(, por haber permitido al gigante del streaming contar su historia de vida a través de dos temporadas con 13 y ocho episodios, respectivamente.

Por su parte, Roberto Palazuelos también conocido como “El Diamante Negro” posee 12 millones de dólares, de acuerdo con Celebrity Net Worth, cifra muy inferior al patrimonio neto de Luis Miguel. No obstante, otros sitios web han asegurado que su riqueza podría alcanzar los 25 millones de dólares, provenientes de la herencia que dejó su abuelo, un importante abogado y empresario en la zona de Acapulco.

When principals, teachers and counselors need solutions for bullying and dropouts, they call Dr. Robert Renteria

BY FRAN BRIGGS

For Reflejos

UNITED STATES, August 30, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Students, teachers, counselors and superintendents across America have returned to school. While children will develop new skills in academics, many will also need social emotional learning (SEL) tools to help conquer challenges inside and outside the classroom.

Civic leader, international best-selling author, and executive trainer,Dr. Robert Renteria says that among the challenges that compromise K- 12 education are bullying, gangs, drugs and violence.

“Children, teenagers, and young adults are walking around lost in a culture of darkness. I decided to do something about it,” stated Renteria. “After working with CPS, principals, and teachers, I developed anacademic-based curriculum. It supports SEL by helping students improve their critical thinking skills.”

Dr. Renteria delivers no-cost, high-impact SEL educational tools to superintendents of American middle schools and high schools. He is also accepting bookings for speaking during the 2021- 2023 school year to personally connect with students and staff.

His comprehensive, From the Barrio bilingual book series is culturally relevant and inspires readers from all backgrounds. Most importantly, it has reduced the propensity for violence and altered student behavior for the better as reported by school administrators and

former violent offenders.

“I am 22 years old and wanted to reach out to you. I just got released from jail for the third time. Heroin took my belongings, health, and family. I got so bad that I just lived for the drug. Reading your book makes me want to start over and really make my parents proud.

Thank you for uplifting my spirits a bit. I read your book straight through the end.

It’s going to be a really rough road ahead but it’s worth a try.”

– Maricela

trajectory.”

Renteria says he has personally vested more than $400,000 over a span of 14 years towards producing and distributing teaching tools that resonate with youth and adults, alike.

For more information, including how to book Dr. Renteria and reserve complimentary teaching tools, call 312-9335619, or visit https://www.fromthebarrio.com. For sponsorship opportunities, email FranBriggs@aol.com

I found Robert inspiring and collaborative. His story builds practical and powerful connections for many students who face circumstances similar to those he shares. Rob¬ert’s life story reinforces the value of hard work and the power of helping others. It’s impor¬tant to provide mentoring relationships with students and Robert brings the value of positive adult relation¬ships to life.”

—NancyBartosz,AssistantPrincipal, Westmont High School, Westmont, IL

DR. ROBERT Renteria provides no-cost, high-impact SEL educational tools to superintendents of American middle schools and high schools

In 2021, Dr. Robert Renteria published qualitative and quantitative assessment reports outlining the economic, environmental and social impact of gun violence in communities. Researchers found that education was not only the common denominator in the data collected but a civic responsibility.

“Both the academic-based and faith-inspired curriculums offer teaching tools to address current issues facing our youth and our communities,”

explained Dr. Renteria. “Barrio focuses its efforts on helping communities and providing an anti-violent initiative and education. Prevention eliminates the need for intervention.”

“Dr. Robert Renteria’s curriculum changes the landscape of potentially dismal futures,” stated Fran Briggs, Publicist to Dr. Robert Renteria. “It inspires students and adults to stay focus and manage their emotions as they go to work on changing their current life’s

Dr. Robert Renteria is a professional speaker, international trainer, and the spokesman for From the Barrio Foundation, a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit organization based in Aurora, IL. He is also a U.S. army veteran. During his seven-plusyear career, Dr. Renteria served in many capacities and leadership roles. He was an elite soldier, former paratrooper, and non-commissioned officer. In Nuremberg, Germany he served in tactical operations. While deployed in Fort Bragg, North Carolina he was assigned to psychological operations and spearheaded the reactivation of the 3rd Special Forces Group.

Dr. Renteria donates academic and faith-inspired curricula which address social and emotional learning (SEL).

The program helps children across the globe with their critical thinking skills and bridges the gap in their education.
