A message from Partnership to End Addiction's VP of DEIB, Marcus Daugherty

Dear Friend,

In support of Black History Month, I reflect upon the progress we’ve made in diversity, equity and inclusion within our country as well as our organization, Partnership to End Addiction. I am particularly proud of the internal dialogues and discussions that have informed the Partnership's efforts and direction.

Last March, I became the first Vice President of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging at the Partnership. Over the past 11 months, I’ve led efforts to strengthen our position as an anti-racist organization. As we look to the future, I am confident that our year of self-reflection and examination will help guide us as we address the ongoing challenges of this valuable and essential work.

Black History Month serves as a reminder of our commitment at the Partnership to reach out, understand and address the unique needs of Black families impacted by addiction – one of our core values as a DEIB organization. Additionally, collaboration with diverse partners in various areas of the mental health and addiction field is critical in meeting these goals.

We admire the work of the following organizations that continue to advocate for and address the needs of Black families and communities:

The Association of Black Psychologists ([link removed] )

National Association of Black Social Workers ([link removed] )

100 Black Men of America Inc. ([link removed] )

Jack and Jill of America Inc. ([link removed] )

National Urban League Inc. ([link removed] )

Thank you for being a part of our community and we look forward to sharing future updates with you on this essential work.

Sincerely,

Marcus Daugherty

Vice President of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging (DEIB) & System Innovation
