Many families face an immense and impossible-seeming struggle when one or more of them has either mental health struggles or addiction issues.

These sorts of issues can be seen in our own Santa Clarita Valley and are the exact kind of thing dealt with by the Insight Treatment Center, a facility specializing in one simple thing: getting help.

The Insight Treatment Hour on KHTS featured a discussion with host Jonathan Guerino and his guest Frank Hernandez regarding drug abuse.

“My mom was fifteen when she got pregnant, sixteen when she had me,” Hernandez said. “Dad was never there…Grandfather always had issues with drinking.”

Hernandez went into his own struggles as he saw family members struggle with drinking and using drugs, which affected him negatively. He now focuses his life on helping his family, his children and others who struggle.
