96A Message from the ChairwomanSave the DateTeam,

I know we are all
rightfully focused on the extremely important upcoming 2023 municipal
elections.

That being said, 2024 is right around the corner, and we
want all of our grassroots leaders across the state to be prepared. As
such, please save the date for our 2024 Congress of Counties gathering
which will be held on Friday, February 23 - Saturday, February 24, 2024,
at the Crowne Plaza/Union Station in downtown Indianapolis.

The
weekend will include a number of informative training sessions with some
of the topics including communications, social media best practices,
grassroots tools, data updates, coalition building and more. While this
weekend is about equipping our grassroots activists with the best tools
to run campaigns, it is also about having fun!

Please save the date
and keep an eye out for more details to come.

We are looking forward
to seeing many of you in February!

Governor Eric Holcomb's Week in Review⚕️ Helping Hoosiers Governor Eric
Holcomb provides remarks during the unveiling of a new tool to fight
addiction.
This week, Governor Eric Holcomb announced the launch of
Shatterproof Treatment Atlas, a free, confidential, first-of-its-kind
tool to connect Hoosiers in need with appropriate addiction treatment
and deliver user-friendly information about the quality of available
programs.
Indiana is one of 13 states to partner with Shatterproof, a
national nonprofit organization dedicated to ending addiction, to launch
Treatment Atlas.What he's saying: “Hoosiers with substance use disorder
deserve timely access to quality care as soon as they’re ready to accept
help,” Gov. Holcomb said.
“Treatment Atlas puts recovery within
immediate reach, giving Hoosiers and their loved ones a trusted resource
to find evidence-based, high-quality treatment that meets their unique
needs, anywhere in the state.” The details: The dashboard lists all 605
addiction treatment facilities certified by DMHA and measures addiction
treatment facilities’ use of evidence-based practices through a
combination of validated data sources and reports them publicly.
Along
with the option to filter and search in-state providers through the
platform using these criteria, Hoosiers have the option to take an
anonymous 10-question Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment to help
identify and understand the appropriate level of care they need.

From The IBJ and Indiana Capital Chronicle:

"State Comptroller Tera
Klutz announced Thursday that she would be retiring from her position on
Dec. 1 after 20 years in public service. She has more than three years
left in her term.
"Klutz was appointed as the 57th auditor of the state
by Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb in 2017, becoming the first certified
public accountant to serve as the state’s chief financial officer.
"She
was elected to the position in 2018 and reelected in 2022. Her title was
changed to state comptroller on July 1 by state statute."

Statement from Chairwoman Hathaway:
"Since her very first day in office, Tera Klutz has been an exemplary
public servant. As the first ever CPA to hold the office, Tera worked
tirelessly to increase transparency to the office of Indiana State
Auditor, now State Comptroller. Tera built and led a team who was
always focused on delivering great government service at a great value
to taxpayers. Please join us in thanking Tera for her many years of
local and state public service."

Gazette: State's Addiction Recovery Services Evolving From The Bedford
Gazette:

"Successful recovery from drug addiction goes beyond
overdose reversal drugs and rehab, advocates say, amid a statewide push
to prioritize social and community support for former users.
“'People that use substances aren’t bad people and I think the
realization is setting in that (addiction) can happen to anybody,'
Breanne Pugh, a project coordinator with the Washington County Drug and
Alcohol Commission, said.

"In Washington County alone, the
commission gave out more than 2,000 Narcan kits in the last year to
better prepare the public if they encounter anyone who’s overdosed.
After Pennsylvania expanded naloxone access in 2018, the emphasis was
on getting it to first responders, but in recent years has included the
general public as well."
