NY Grassroots Advocacy Training Initiative

New York's Closing the Addiction Treatment Gap project focuses on targeted grassroots advocacy and media work to promote increased state funding for addiction prevention, treatment, and recovery.

We hope to expand communication between already existing coalitions and to extend beyond traditional constituency groups to engage wide ranging interests toward the end of obtaining additional resources for the field.

By participating in these grassroots trainings, you assist us in working towards our goal of creating a strong statewide network of providers and advocates.

Training dates are:

• North Country:  Friday, June 26
  St. Josephs Rehabilitation Center, Saranac Lake

• Long Island:  Thursday, June 25
  The Pederson Krag Center, Huntington

• New York City:  Wednesday, June 24
  Marriott New York at the Brooklyn Bridge

Online registration is closed.
