As today is my last day working at GCASA, I wanted to take this opportunity to post one last time. I would like to extend a sincere thank-you to GCASA Executive Director David Markham, who graciously invited me to contribute to the blog almost a year ago.
Additionally, I am grateful for the wide range of experience I have gained working for this organization. GCASA's Prevention team consists of truly wonderful people who are passionate about and excellent at what they do. Any community would be lucky to have such a crew in their midst.
Genesee County Drug Free Communities Coalition and Orleans United Drug Free Communities Coaltion are two of what I have come to consider the "best-kept secrets" of GCASA. All communities should have the advantage of a coalition that engages the talents, passions and resources of all community sectors, as these do.
I will close with at "shout-out" to my co-worker and friend, Tom Talbot, who is one of the many well-rounded people working here. Tom is an avid reader and has a blog called "Tom's Book Pages," where he reviews his latest reads and offers suggestions for your own reading pleasure. Check it out!
