*Hillary Clinton to Hold Discussion on Substance Abuse and Addiction in
Charleston*

Charleston, WV – On Tuesday May 3 Hillary Clinton will meet with community
leaders, practitioners, and persons and family members who have struggled
with addiction, to discuss the substance abuse epidemic in West Virginia
and what do to about it.  Throughout her campaign, Clinton has heard from
countless voices about the devastating effects of substance abuse and
addiction, particularly due to opioid abuse, in communities across the
country.

Last September, Clinton put forward a $10 billion initiative to combat
America’s deadly epidemic of drug and alcohol addiction
<https://www.hillaryclinton.com/briefing/factsheets/2015/09/02/combat-addiction/>.
It sets forth ambitious goals to prevent and
treat substance use disorders, to prioritize treatment over incarceration,
and to support people in recovery, and promote better practices by
prescribers.  Clinton’s initiative provides multi-faceted federal policy
leadership and substantial financial incentives to states to achieve those
goals through cooperative partnerships.
