Advocacy

Volunteers bring a diverse and fresh perspective to our organization. DACOA helps to train and guide them into leadership roles. 

DACOA informs and updates state and community leaders about policies needed for children living in a substance abusive environment.  

“I remain concerned about the consequences of a recreational marijuana industry in our state. I’m concerned especially about the potential effects on Delaware’s children, on the safety of our roadways, and on our poorest neighborhoods, where I believe a legal marijuana industry will have a disproportionately negative impact. Those concerns are why I could not put my signature to either House Bill 1 or House Bill 2.”
