I seldom, if ever, write to newspapers. However, I feel the need to “step up to the plate” and support Claire Fiddian-Green’s recent column regarding mental health and substance abuse [Mental-health screening for children must be norm, Forefront, April 26]. It was well written and stated clearly two of the important issues facing society today. Addiction is something that has touched most of our lives in some way, and society struggles to find an answer to the problem. It is reassuring that the Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation is searching for those answers.
