Commenting on the award, Paul Hayes said, “Tackling drug and alcohol issues in isolation from the multiple problems which typically accompany dependence is doomed to failure. Collective Voice supports the MEAM Coalition’s efforts to showcase how integrated services can benefit service users and their communities.”
