Two Petaluma Mom’s Combine Efforts To End Deadly “Toxic Cocktail”

Kathleen and HeatherKathleen Stafford, mom of 3 teenage boys, businesswoman and Heather Elliott-Hudson, mom of 2 teenage boys and a 7 year old daughter, businesswoman both came together because of a very scary drug incident that happened and because of the incident prevalent drug use at our school was uncovered.
