Community Forum on Heroin at Saratoga Springs Public

This will be the first in a series of local forums being held across New York State to provide community members the opportunity to share personal experiences in dealing with alcohol and drug addiction, loss of a family member or friend, as well as recovery from addiction.

The Listening Forums will engage the community in discussion with local leaders and result in a report titled “The State of Addiction Recovery in New York” to better inform the public and policy makers.
Want to share your story? Speaker’s remarks will be limited to 3 minutes in order to allow as many people as possible to speak.

This event is being held at Saratoga Springs Public Library in the 1st floor Community Room.
