In “I Love PBJ,” I share how harmony, diversity and individual responsibility can transform our lives and the world. We can all make contributions far beyond even our own expectations. In this acclaimed motivational talk, Barry will show participants how to use knowledge, experience, personal motivation, and power to be agents of positive change. In this humorous, dynamic, and inspiring presentation, audience members learn to improve communication through relationship-building strategies while using problem-solving skills to increase productivity. This nationally acclaimed program will have participants laughing, interacting, thinking and motivated to live their best lives.

The Macoupin County Drug Court is a unique program for high risk adult offenders who live in Macoupin County and are charged with serious offenses tied to their continued drug use. The program incorporates many aspects of the criminal justice system to encourage the participants to remain drug free and productive members of society, including risk/needs assessments, judicial interaction, intensive supervision, frequent drug testing, graduated use of sanctions and incentives, and treatment, including various rehabilitation services. It is an important program for our county, and the Drug Court Team, which consists of several individuals from various disciplines, would like more people in our communities to know and understand why the program is valuable.
