US Senate Confirms National Drug Control Policy Director

Last evening the United States Senate confirmed acting ONDCP Director, Jim Carroll to the position. He became the first permanent director in nearly two years.

While Director Carroll has not had extensive experience in this field, the White House said Carroll “has extensive leadership experience making him eminently qualified to lead the office.” 

NAATP congratulates Director Carroll and looks forward to working with him to promote greater access to treatment for substance use disorders, reducing stigma attached to the disease and enhancing the professionalism and quality of treatment services.
