Every high school in America has to contend with substance abuse by its student population and students everywhere face a range of challenges in addition to substance abuse. Forward-thinking Corona del Mar High School took steps in 2015 to help students get back on track when they made poor choice. ONE Recovery comes on campus each week and runs a program where kids can voluntarily get involved and earn a second chance at making good choices. Parents are involved also, so ONE Recovery is helping families with their amazing program. Lynne Pedersen is the founder of ONE Recovery which operates in a few high schools in southern California. She's proud of the difference the program is making by helping students to achieve their full potential.
