CDAT - Community Drug Action Team - 2009
Supported Fairfield City Council’s Community Drug Action Team.
I recall a Fairfield City Council drug seminar where Tony was the final guest speaker after the NSW Area Health Director and a senior drug rehabilitation specialist. The first two speakers admitted that limited progress was made despite best efforts. Tony spoke of several marvellous examples of change starting from his own experience. Questions from the public gallery were directed to him, not the professionals. It was an amazing evening. - Former Director of BHBV
