WJLA Heroin Town Hall featuring The CAF and Attorney General Mark Herring
On Wednesday, May 25th, WJLA and affiliates hosted an hour long special: Your Voice, Your Future Town Hall: 'The Heroin Epidemic'
Panelists and live audiences in MD, VA, PA and FL joined in to discuss the crisis and what is being done. Mark and Ginny Atwood told Chris' story from their home in Herndon, Va. along with Attorney General Mark Herring. Hagerstown, MD police chief shares the emotional story of losing his daughter to heroin.
The presence of town halls such as this highlights the severity of the growing opioid epidemic nationwide. Special thanks to the folks at WJLA for this in-depth coverage and for inviting us to be a part of it.
