In her work to prevent substance misuse, Lynda works with local schools, law enforcement, and healthcare providers to educate individuals of all ages about the risks and consequences of drug and alcohol use. She supports changes to local policies and practices that aim to reduce underage use and adult misuse of both legal and illegal substances. Having witnessed the harmful effects of substance misuse on families, Lynda believes that bringing a Face Addiction Now chapter to a community can create lasting, positive impact.
