The Pennsylvania Association of County Drug
and Alcohol Administrators (PACDAA), a CCAP affiliate, will be hosting its
sixth annual Recovery Advocacy Day. This year will be a free virtual event on
September 22, 2020. The event will be held virtually from 10:00-1:00pm with
members of the recovery community, family members, and will include re-marks
from several legislators. More information about the event can be found on
Facebook at Courage to Change Recovery Advocacy Day.
Recovery
Advocacy Day aims to
raise awareness of substance use conditions, celebrates individuals in
recovery, and acknowledges the work of prevention, treatment
and recovery support services. In order to do this, participants are
invited to meet with legislators, share their story and convey a message
of hope.
Counties remain focused on preventing
substance misuse and continue to seek strong state and local partnerships, as
well as increased capacity for prevention, intervention and treatment to
effectively address substance abuse.
