Combatting Substance Abuse in the Community

with Alice McCaffrey, Sullivan County, TN Anti-Drug Coalition

Hosted by Bill Spooner, Retired CIO


Guest Alice McCaffrey is the Director of the Sullivan County Anti-Drug Coalition and has worked for the Coalition since its start in January 2011. Since then the Coalition has grown to 12 staff members and became its own fiscal agent in 2019. Alice has a BS in Business Administration: Organizational Innovation and is a certified prevention specialist, a graduate of CADCA's National Coalition Academy, and a trainer for the TN ACE Initiative: Building Strong Brains, and SAMHSA’s Trauma-Informed Care. She has two grown sons and is a grandmother to three.

The CHIME Opioid Task Force (OTF) was launched in early 2018 with a simple mission: to turn the tide on the opioid epidemic using the knowledge and expertise of the nation’s healthcare IT leaders. While our mission is simple, achieving it is not. Opioid addiction is a complex disease that requires long-term, if not lifetime, care from well-informed clinicians who are supported with easy-to-use and reliable tools.
