I produced a comedy show at a Drug Rehab Center


...last week. My stand-up comedian buddies and I put on a free show for the patients at a live-in 24 hour drug rehab facility in Jamaica, Queens.(From left to right: Cooper Rego, Ben Boime, myself, and Scott aka "Hogwild". Between the drug rehab and the hostel I really seem to have a handle on how to make money telling jokes, haha. (that was sarcasm btw)

Yes, all drug rehab center are different, and there are many different kinds of addicts that need special care based upon their needs. Its not always easy to admit you have an addiction and need help, but if someone in your family needs help, please take the time to do the research on what is best for their addiction. There are also many professionals that can help you with this. Sadly, a lot of people dont know how important it is to get their loved ones treated untill they see proof that the influence of a family member can really help.

Great job done by you. By doing the comedy show at rehab centers not only make them feel happy it also helps them in recovering soon, because if a patient feels happy while taking the treatment then it will take very less time in curing. Good work, continue the same at other rehabs also. All the best.
