Black History Month 2022

Black Prevention Leaders

During Black History Month 2022, RISE Drug Free MKE/MCSAP is recognizing Black champions of substance use prevention, treatment, and recovery. These leaders have done important work to build our understanding of how substance use/misuse and mental health and wellness uniquely impact African Americans and how African Americans who struggle with these issues can be better served by behavioral health professionals, public policy makers, and social service providers. Their insights and contributions deserve special recognition and attention throughout the year.
