I asked all the young leaders at @CADCA to join me at the stage for the largest photobomb ever. “We are the power of prevention!” #CADCAForum

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

My brother Philip is an addict, and bad parenting is often blamed for drug addiction. Well, my parents raised a Surgeon General, I think they did okay 🤷🏾‍♂️ We need to recognize that addiction is a chronic disease not a moral failing. #CADCAForum @CADCA

A great afternoon at our Opioid Crisis Lunch and Learn. #DYK The 29640 zip code was 2nd in the state for the highest # of Narcan administrations in 2017? Narcan is used to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.

Special thanks to all who made this a great event!

Did you see the news story about our Alcohol Enforcement Teams on Fox Carolina? We are thankful for all of our partnering Law Enforcement Agencies who work so diligently to keep alcohol out of the hands of young people!

75% of young teens say it is easy to get alcohol. Don’t help – make sure your alcohol is safely stored and never supply a teen with alcohol. Help us keep it #OutOfTheirHands #SCOutOfTheirHands2018 #SCDAODAS

[Steppin It Up Coalition @SteppinItUpCo]

In South Carolina, 71% of high schoolers have tried alcohol. Keep your alcohol #OutOfTheirHands this prom season. #SCOutoftheirHands2018

[Steppin It Up Coalition @SteppinItUpCo]

Each year, approximately 85 South Carolinians under 21 die from alcohol use. Keep alcohol #OutOfTheirHands.
