SEAFORD CORPS:
The Seaford Corps are currently working with families with school aged children to equip parents and guardians with information and support in raising children so they will not succumb to an addiction as a young adult.  Majors Philip and Adela Davis have 2 specific goals: (1) To minimize the very real threat of an addiction derailing the futures of our children; and (2) to help parents and guardians avoid the collateral damage associated with having an addicted child.
