Gov. Kay Ivey announced on Tuesday that she has awarded $50,000 to the Dallas County Adult Drug Court for addiction treatment.
“This program gives participants an opportunity to address their drug addictions and avoid the serious consequences that continuing their addictions will cause,” Ivey said in the announcement. “I commend the Dallas County Commission for offering this program to help participants reclaim and rebuild their lives.”
The drug court program offers treatment for those dealing with addiction by means of different services such as testing and aftercare. The funds were administered by the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA).
“ADECA stands with Gov. Ivey in support of this program that helps participants become free of addiction and lead more productive lives,” ADECA Director Kenneth Boswell said.
