CADCA Experts Featured on Radio Program

Drug and alcohol problems have long been a problem in all corners of the nation's capital, from drug deals on street corners to binge drinking on college campuses -- even former first lady Betty Ford admitted to a long battle with drinking and painkiller addiction after she left 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. CADCA’s Chairman and CEO, Gen. Arthur Dean, and Vice-President of Development and Youth Programs, Kareemah Abdullah, were interviewed on these “local” trends as well as substance abuse issues affecting coalitions nationally in a radio interview on 89.3 WPFW, Pacifica Radio Network, Monday.

They discussed the importance of prevention and how CADCA and the coalitions it represents are helping to address substance abuse rates throughout the country.
