ERIE, April 12 – In an effort to improve resources for people in drug and alcohol recovery, Pennsylvania approved the Erie County Office of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, and five other organizations, for state funding to enhance community-driven services, Rep. Ryan Bizzarro said.
“The Erie County Office of Drug and Alcohol Abuse knows what’s working in our community and they are positioned to direct this money where it is most effective,” Bizzarro said.
