Session Title: 3D - Drug Endangered Children: Critical Collaborations
Overview:
The partnership of Maine Drug Enforcement agents and Department of Health and Human Services child protective workers is a very positive example of collaboration with social service providers and law enforcement. During cross-training, both agencies have received information/education about the other’s role and responsibilities, and modified/amended their approach to best address the needs of drug endangered children. Learn how this kind of collaboration can be utilized in your community.
