FACE-IT Meeting

Concerned residents of Yancey and Mitchell Counties are invited to St. Thomas Episcopal Church on August 12, 2010 from 6:00-7:30PM to hear about FACE-IT (Facing Addiction through Community Empowerment and Intervention Teams). FACE-It in WNC will train a group of community members to address the accidental drug overdose death rate epidemic and to help address other local substance abuse issues. Food will be provided along with information about how to participate in the FACE-IT project and ways to get involved to prevent and reduce prescription drug abuse.
 

Prescription Drug Task Force

A prescription drug task force has formed as a result of a community forum held in June. The group is currently working on an action plan and has representation from physicians and other health care professionals, law enforcement, mental health and substance abuse professionals, pharmacists, various agencies and community members. The next meeting will be on Thursday, September 16th at 6:00 PM at Blue Ridge Fitness & Rehab. To get involved, please contact Dr. Haaga at jmhaaga@verizon.net
