Helping others stay sober in the construction industry

Nonprofit group aids workers fighting substance abuse

Fred Myers wants to help people in and out of the construction industry to stay sober and productive.

That has been his mission since October 2007, when Myers, a retired construction executive, founded the nonprofit Sober Corps, which connects at-risk substance abusers with mentors.

The program, complements and builds off 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous.
