Matt Koroncai Story – Drugs Beginning in Third Grade

Matt Koroncai was in third grade when he started a drug habit. He thought drugs would help him overcome the empty feeling of no relationships or connectedness. He longed for acceptance. For a time, drugs helped him overcome those feelings of deep inadequacies. That, combined with a strong will of defiance, led to a life of addiction. Through a friend he didn’t even like, that person chose to invest in Matt’s life and lead him out of his life of dependency. As of this writing, Matt is celebrating six years of being clean. Can we help others avoid Matt’s story by engaging effectively in other’s lives?
