Working Together –
Sept. 14, 2019 – It is transformative and life-changing, and it is a positive experience. As a result of the efforts of the McShin Foundation and others, lives are being saved in Virginia, and, ultimately, that is what the fight against addiction is all about.
Since becoming the director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy in the White House, I have made saving lives my top priority and the top priority of my office. Addiction is not about cold, hard stats or impersonal numbers; instead, it is about people. We want those who are struggling with the disease of addiction to know they are loved by their family, friends and even strangers.
