Partnership for Community Solutions Public Forum
Jefferson City
A Public Forum will be held on September 16, 2004 at Ramada Inn in Jefferson City, Missouri. The forum will provide information from each committee chairman in the 12 areas of the Partnership for Community Solutions to drug and alcohol problems. Each committee has been meeting and developing strategies, programs and policies based on the capacities, skills and assets of the people and their communities. The community, rather than managed institutions, is best suited to help solve the problems of its citizens and the public forum will provide the information needed to make the best decisions for our community. Each sub-committee has developed a list of available resources as well as a list of "wants and needs". The 12 committees are; Shelter-Family Services-Youth Activities-Faith based activities- Recovery support services - Treatment services - Corrections and Enforcement - Fund raising & special events - Prevention -Advocacy and Media. Committee members include elected officials, professionals in the drug and alcohol field, state government officials, members of associations and individuals who have a passion for drug and alcohol recovery.
