'Unmasked: The stigma of meth' examines the epidemic-sized methamphetamine problem in Delaware County, Indiana and explores why everyone -- from lawmakers to homeowners -- should care. There were 148 seized meth labs in Delaware County in 2014. That number climbed by almost 40 percent to 235 labs seized in 2015. Every week, two babies at Muncie's IU Ball Memorial Hospital are born addicted to drugs. There's a wait list for children who are in need of foster care because there is no one in their family not affected by drug use. But there is hope and the community is pushing for solutions. Through law enforcement, legislative, medical, behavioral health and faith-based communities, there is progress to report. "Unmasked: The stigma of meth" explores the meth epidemic through the eyes of addicts who are now taking control of their lives and trying to help others who are facing the same challenges.
