Phoenix, Arizona – Award winning actor/director Daniel Baldwin and SOBA Recovery Center, CEO, Greg Hannley spoke with ABC News in Phoenix about drugs, in particular heroin, addiction, and the opening of the new drug and alcohol treatment center, SOBA Mesa.
Award winning Actor/ Director Daniel Baldwin, SOBA Recovery CEO, Greg Hannley and SOBA Mesa Director of Operations Eamon O’Hara spoke with ABC News Affiliate Channel 15 in Phoenix, Arizona about drug use in the greater Phoenix area and in particular, heroin and its popularity with young adults.
Soba Recovery Center, with operations in California and Texas, saw a significant number of clients from Arizona at their treatment centers, which caused them to consider the need for a treatment center in the Phoenix area. After verifying the need, they chose Mesa as the location for this Arizona Drug Rehab.
Actor / Director Daniel Baldwin shares how he “failed 8 times [at other rehabs] prior to connecting with SOBA and his friend and mentor Greg Hannley. Daniel is now very passionate about his own success story, what he believes is needed for real treatment that lasts, and living with this disease.
He and Greg are now on a mission to evangelize effective drug addiction recovery, shedding light on the addiction problem nearly all major US cities now face and to end the stigma about addicts; as Greg says, “these are not bad people” but “sick people in need of help.”
Baldwin openly shares his own dark journey of cocaine addiction and the problems it caused him as well as the attempts he made at staying sober, in an effort to help others also battling this disease.
Recently, Daniel won Best Picture at the acclaimed Manhattan Film Festival, Best Picture Jury Award and Best Picture Audience Award at the San Antonio Film Festival, and Best Picture, Best Editing, Best Original Song and Best Supporting Actress at the Long Beach International Film Festival for the movie “The Wisdom to Know the Difference” which is a drama/ thriller about drug addiction and an unconventional heroin detox and recovery.
