I have put much thought into whether it makes sense to play another season. After talking it over with my wife and many other friends and family, I have decided to return for another year. Thank you to all my supporters and detractors for fueling me, I ain’t fucking done yet!
One of the best parts of my job is working with and learning from the powerhouse that is Valerie Mielke. Thanks for all you have done for me and for NJ!
#MakingAnImpact: Valerie Mielke, Assistant Commissioner for the NJ Division of Mental Health & Addiction Services in @NJDHS
Valerie is at the helm of New Jersey's community public health system—working to increase public safety and strengthen communities. #BlackHistoryMonth
.@NJDHS Commissioner @sarahmadelman also joined @ONDCP Director @DrGupta46 at @CooperHealthNJ's @SNJMATCOE to discuss recent steps to make it easier for primary care providers to prescribe medication that can support addiction recovery.
Today I'm announcing a groundbreaking initiative making New Jersey the first state to allow any pharmacy to provide anonymous and free Naloxone to any individual, at any time.
This will ensure that lifesaving opioid reversal medication is in the hands of more people, at no cost.
