Last Friday evening, my hometown had a ‘kick off’ for National Alcohol and Drug Abuse Recovery Month in an effort to raise awareness of substance abuse and to take steps towards becoming a healthier community. In the month of September, our city will focus on four areas: prevention, rehabilitation, recovery, and community response.
I had the opportunity to open the event with Mayor Nutting and speak about my platform in conjunction with the town’s initiative. The Project AWARE Players performed a moving improvisation about substance abuse, the alumni band played, and we had a showing of the drug awareness film, ‘Ty’, produced by Crossroads.
