Testimonies

"I met Mr. Farris in early May when I consulted with him regarding an employee substance abuse issue.  Walking down LaBrea Avenue on our way to lunch, on three separate occasions, people stopped us on the sidewalk within four blocks to thank Mr. Farris for saving their lives.  I've never seen anything like this.  Three separate people within four blocks!  This is a miraculous human being doing miraculous work on our planet!"

John Parsailz, Owner, Macadamia Computers, Los Angeles, CA

"Riveting! Very professional. I was mesmerized by your entire presentation. You had the audience on the edge of their seats."

Larry Bennett, Educational Services Manager, Jr. Achievement

 
"The most complete documentation of drug and alcohol abuse I've ever seen. Necessary and important for all groups."

LaRue Corbin PhD, Professor of Psychology, College of the Redwoods

 
"Mr. Farris has done a great service to the city of Los Angeles through his extensive work in drug prevention with youth. We have been privileged to work with Mr. Farris who has provided meaningful information and mentoring, helping countless youth examine and change their lives. We look forward to Mr. Farris' ongoing presence at the after school program."

Deanna Ruggieri, MPA, Executive Director,  GROWTH Foundation

 

“Your presentation made a notable impact on every member of my team, and so, we endorse your book as part of a prevention program for all our parent and teacher groups throughout the district. Thank you for all the work you continue to do on behalf of our students, families and communities.”

 

Lori Vollandt, Ed.D, Coordinator of Health Education Programs and Board of Advisors, Los Angeles Unified School District.

 
“The work Mr. Farris is doing has the potential of helping a lot of people in our community. He has an incredible story and message and is uniquely qualified to speak to the youth who most need to hear his message.”

Robin Bradley Kar, Professor of Jurisprudence and Law, Loyola Marymount University

 
 
"Hi Mr. Farris. Thank you so much for your presentation at Pacific
Clinics. You have overcome so much and your story is inspirational! I
would love for you to come out to the site I work at and speak for the
therapists and case managers here. Your story will inspire them and
give them greater insight to do even better work with our kids and families.
How can I arrange to have you as a presenter here? What are your fees?"

Meredith A. Ball, LCSW
Program Director,
Bonita Family Center
 
   
 
"Don't miss another Craig Farris in June. Especially if you have kids. His book absolutely moved me at my core. He's an enormous person and we love having him on the show."

Craig,

Your story is amazing and I think the kids would not only enjoy but learn from your presentation.
