NEW YORK (Road Recovery announcement) - The driving rhythm behind The Strokes, drummer Fabrizio Moretti, has been positively impacting the lives of young people in New York and beyond by spearheading his own foundation while joining efforts of New York's music industry foundation Road Recovery.

Together with family and friends, the Moretti family recently launched the JuDi Foundation whose goal is to support, finance, and promote public education relating to juvenile diabetes information and research. "Diabetes has touched our family directly. It is a disease that can literally be arrested through early detection and ongoing medical care. Moretti explained, "The primary goal of the JuDi Foundation is to promote early screening, identification, and treatment of children suffering from diabetes, along with raising funds for research using embryonic stem cells, particularly research that is operating without governmental funding."

While launching the JuDi Foundation, Moretti was introduced to Road Recovery, the New York based non-profit foundation whose action programs join music industry professionals whose lives have been touched by drug/alcohol addiction with teenagers in an environment that nurtures creativity and mentorship while offering positive alternatives.

Both Road Recovery and the JuDi Foundation speak the same language in furthering a message of healthy living to youth. In February 2005, Moretti personally spent an evening with youth from the Caron Foundation, where Road Recovery has developed an on-going program for teens in early recovery. Moretti began working with Crazy James, a band comprised of teens whose recovery spans from days to a year, during pre-production rehearsals for their upcoming recording sessions. Moretti demonstrated proper drumming techniques and song crafting skills to the teens. He referenced his real life experiences as the drummer for his band, and how he has learned to bring life's experience and feelings to drumming. Moretti encapsulated such knowledge with sensitivity and intuition, with the ability to connect as a peer-to-peer, instead of the fa�ade as a rock star talking down to a fan.

In furthering his involvement with Road Recovery Caron Foundation teen alumni, Moretti chose to get involved with Crazy James' first CD recording in a world-class professional recording studio. He has been lending a hand in sitting in the studio with the teens, advising on the recording session with Road Recovery's pros (Groove Collective bandmates Jay Rodriguez & Chris Theberge, with Owen Comaskey, songwriter/Talent Buyer - Crash Mansion/BLVD), and showing support to teens trying to lead a healthy life through the power of music and shared experience. Crazy James' music draws from each band member's life experiences: going from confusion, anger, desolation and near death self-destruction to hope, conviction, peace and life. A Spring release is anticipated.

Moretti explains, "Road Recovery seems to trade sadness and disparity for focus and creativity. The life stories of these courageous people are testimonies of their strength and maturity. Watching them carry each other with kindness, sensitivity and regard was moving, but seeing them work together, writing music and allocating their passions to something communal, was inspiring. Music has never seemed so therapeutic as it does with these kids through Road Recovery."

Road Recovery commends Fabrizio Moretti for his time and commitment to the mission of Road Recovery and to teens who will never forget this private experience.
