February 2008: The Northern Lights Documentary will be presented in Washington, DC at the Coalition of Anti-Drug Communities National Conference (CADCA).
The Northern Lights documentary is available for showing on your own cable access channel: Just in time for November 30th, National Methamphetamine Awareness Day.

| TESTIMONIALS |
"I was very impressed with the message that was being given that everyone needs to be involved to stop the spread of methamphetamine. The production does a very nice job getting involvement from many sectors of a community and I can see where communities of any size could benefit from putting this on.”
