APPNA - Hometown Community Project (HTCP)
Today, America faces a public health crisis because of the surge in prescription drugs and heroin abuse that has led to death and despair for too many families.
Statistics are truly alarming: More Americans are dying from heroin and prescription drug overdoses today than from car crashes or gun violence. There's not a city or state untouched by this addiction crisis.
APPNA is proud to announce its partnership with the launch of HTCP (Home Town Community Project) to address the opioid addiction crisis across America. Our efforts can make a difference and can save lives.
Home Town community project is the premier advocacy organization for young Americans and their families. We empower families with information, support and guidance to get the help their loved ones need and deserve, through advocacy, education and innovation.
HTCP enables APPNA physicians to best serve their communities, strengthen their businesses and seize new opportunities in the digital age. With this approach, we will build healthy communities, advocating for greater understanding and more effective programs to treat the disease of addiction.
I would humbly request our physicians to join this noble cause to rid this menace from our society.
