Ted Berardinelli recently graduated from Pacific County Drug Court.
Drug Court not only helps clients avoid a felony conviction, but more importantly gives them an opportunity to improve their lives by kicking a possible addiction.
Drug Court is an 16-month intensive program, which not only helps the addict, but saves the county money for the costs of incarceration for the current charges and hopefully no future charges.
Berardinelli is currently helping others with their addiction problems especially veterans like himself.
