  • Interview with John Schwarzlose President and CEO of the Betty Ford Center
    Published in abridged form in Counselor. Pioneer Series A Purposeful Life: An Interview with John Schwarzlose President and CEO of the Betty Ford Center William L. White, MA In April 1978, former President and First Lady Jerry and Betty Ford announced to the nation that Mrs. Ford had sought treatment and was recovering from addiction to alcohol and other drugs. It was a riveting moment in the history of addiction treatment and recovery in America, but the Ford family had further contributions to make to that history. On October 4, 1982, the Betty Ford Center opened on the grounds of the Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, California. When Mrs. Ford sought a leader for the treatment center that would bear her name, she chose John Schwarzlose. Since then, the Betty Ford Center has achieved international esteem under his leadership and has treated more than 80,000 patients (half of whom have been women). Through these years, the Center also developed specialized treatment for licensed professionals, innovative programs of focused continuing care, state-of-the-art family and children’s programs, and an independent Betty Ford Institute whose mission includes recovery-focused research dissemination, public and professional education, and policy advocacy. I have known John Schwarzlose as a valued colleague and friend for most of my career and welcomed the opportunity to interview him in between sessions of the 2010 annual meeting of the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers. Join me in this sweeping discussion of John’s career and the work of the Betty Ford Center. Education and Early Career Bill White: John, let me start with the question all of us in this field are often asked: “How did you choose to work in this most unusual profession?” John Schwarzlose: Well, it’s an interesting story.

  • The Human Factor
    The Human Factor By Sally Satel Tuesday, July 10, 2007 Filed under: Big Ideas, Health & Medicine Drug abuse causes hundreds of billions of dollars in economic losses and untold personal heartache. How to limit the damage? SALLY SATEL suggests we start by ditching the ‘brain disease’ model that’s popular with scientists and focus on treating addicts as people with the power to reshape their own lives. Despite its own prejudices, an HBO series transmits just this message of responsibility and optimism. For nearly a century, the United States government has been waging one unsuccessful anti-drug crusade after another. Today, more than 20 million Americans abuse drugs and alcohol[1]. And while the users themselves pay a high price in stunted lives and heartache, the social and economic costs are staggering. The direct effects of addiction— homelessness, unemployment, and disease—and the costs of interdiction and incarceration are estimated at over $200 billion annually[2]. The annual burden in lost productivity in the workplace, mainly from absenteeism and accidents, is another $129 billion, and employees’ drug- and alcohol- related healthcare costs add $16 billion[3]. In all, that’s about 3 percent of our gross domestic product. Addicts and their families—and the rest of us who help pick up the pieces—have it hard enough. The last thing we need is a confusing public health message about the nature of addiction. Yet that is exactly what was purveyed earlier in the year by an ambitious television series on HBO about substance abuse. While much of the series preached an ultra-medicalized philosophy of addiction—one I find woefully misleading—the broader message, paradoxically, was powerful and accurate: namely, that addicts are endowed with the ability to change their own lives.

  • (“Haymarket”) Has Applied for Zoning Approval to Permit a Health Care Center at 860 W
    HAYMARKET DUPAGE RESPONSE TO VILLAGE OF ITASCA QUESTIONS FOR HAYMARKET Haymarket DuPage (“Haymarket”) has applied for zoning approval to permit a health care center at 860 W. Irving Park Road, Itasca. As is well known by now, Haymarket Center is one of the region’s largest and most comprehensive providers of treatment for substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Haymarket was founded in 1975 by Monsignor Ignatius McDermott and Dr. James West, and is a fully accredited, nonprofit organization, licensed by the Illinois Department of Human Services. Haymarket plans to provide a full continuum of health care services to adults aged 18 and older at the Itasca location. Services will include diagnosis, treatment and recovery support for persons disabled by substance use and mental health disorders, who voluntarily seek care. Treatment provided is planned to include inpatient, outpatient and recovery programs. Haymarket intends to be a good neighbor in the Itasca community, and while much of the information requested has no bearing on the Village’s zoning standards, Haymarket provides the following answers to the Village’s questions. 1. How many people do you expect to treat in the new facility? Haymarket is expecting to provide substance use and mental health treatment to approximately 4,750 patients a year through all of its treatment and recovery programs, including outpatient programs. Nearly 2,000 men and women from DuPage and the collar counties were patients at Haymarket clinics in 2017-2018. a) How many do you treat downtown? The Haymarket West Loop facility provided treatment to 12,000 patients in 2018.
