WASHINGTON, D.C., USA: Dr. Bernard Fialkoff, a periodontist and dental implant surgeon from Bayside, N.Y., and president and founding sponsor of the Foundation for A Drug Free World, The Americas Chapter (FDFW), recently visited the nation’s capital with members of Drug Free World, as part of an international convention on drug abuse.
Fialkoff led a delegation that consisted of Meghan Fialkoff, executive director of FDFW, David Tidman, FDFW lead presenter, Bishop Dr. Lubin Moise, Franklin Valoa, drug counselor from the National Council of Drugs of the Dominican Republic, Rabbi Levy Abdurakhmanov, Pastor Lenox Abrigo, Melvin Dial of the DC Arts Non-Profit Organization, and Tamrat Medhim of Little Ethiopia Magazine.
The convention began with a presentation at the National Affairs Office of Dupont Circle for community and religious leaders, an interview with Maggie Linton Radio Show of Sirius XM in which Fialkoff discussed the organization’s goals of reaching all youth with its free drug education, a meeting with the DC Police Department on collaborating on its drug prevention initiatives, and visits with Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand.
As president of the chapter, Fialkoff planned the convention that brought together like-minded community individuals and government officials, armed each with materials and media, and created a community educational plan for 2016.
Through the use of booklets, videos and educational criterion, FDFW delivers presentations to groups from third grade to high school, parental groups, police explorer groups, YMCAs and a variety of organizations concerned with the negative impact of drugs on our future.
Fialkoff said, “It is important to share the knowledge we have gained as adults with our children. They are the future generation and can be helped to avoid problems that we went through in our lives. As a doctor, one of our roles is to help our community, and that’s why I support the Drug Free World initiatives. ”
