Regardless of where in New Jersey we live or work, substance abuse impacts all of us. As I have mentioned many times before, no family or community is immune and a recent article in ROI-NJ shows that the places we work or volunteer are also not immune.
Whether you are a manger, a business owner, a volunteer coordinator or local leader, the fact that a recent study found that new data shows significant jumps in positive testing for marijuana, heroin and methamphetamine in the past few years in New Jersey, is a concern for all of us.
Next week PDFNJ will be holding our annual meeting on the impact of drug use in the workplace, and I invite all of you to attend and find out how, together, we can address this issue.
