Description of the Problem

OCR works in 85 designated communities and with dozens of community/resident organizations, that deal directly or indirectly with substance abuse and mental health issues in their neighborhoods. We would like to hear and learn about strategies and approaches to curtail, discourage the onset of substance abuse and mental health challenges which often work in tandem in disadvantaging communities and harming families.

How do you anticipate that the requested assistance will address the problems?
Our residents organizations and non-profits have limited funds to address effectively these problems. Hearing from other professionals in an organization like BJA would provide encouragement as well as a forum in which conversations among those on the front lines can begin and, hopefully, continue long after the conference.
