Jersey Mike's Month of Giving - The Dental/Opioid Connection - Courage To Speak Foundation

This week host John Voket and the award-winning For the People visits with Jersey Mike's Subs to promote their March Month of Giving - and how it benefits four important charities across Connecticut.

Then we'll talk with a dental expert about how patients - especially adolescents - can avoid becoming addicted to prescription painkillers they might receive after procedures like wisdom tooth extractions.

And on the same subject, we'll ring up Ginger Katz of the Courage to Speak Foundation, hear about the expansion of her Parenting Through the Opioid Crisis program, how you can bring it to a school or community organization near you.
