  • Introduction to the Master Plan
    Introduction to the Master Plan Background The Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse was established by the New Jersey Legislature in 1989 as an independent body to coordinate, plan, research and review all aspects of alcohol and drug abuse prevention activities of state government, as well as maintain a statewide prevention network of Municipal Alliances. The Council is comprised of 26 members: 10 public members are appointed by the governor; the senate president and assembly speaker each appoint two public members, and 12 ex-officio members represent state departments and agencies. The Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse adopted its mission statement, vision and goals following a collaborative process involving a varied and diverse group of stakeholders with interest in substance abuse prevention, education, intervention, treatment and recovery. These guiding principles have formed the foundation for the ongoing development and implementation of a comprehensive planning process to address alcoholism and drug abuse in New Jersey. The Interdepartmental Advisory Panel, which coordinates the Council’s state department representation, developed the format used in the State Government Component of the Master Plan. Their efforts made the collection of this comprehensive information possible. The Council wishes to express its appreciation to Governor Jon Corzine for his administration’s support and participation in the activities of the Council and the Municipal Alliances and its overall interest in the critical issues of alcoholism and drug abuse. The Council’s association with the governor’s office is an invaluable asset in the development and implementation of a comprehensive statewide master plan for alcoholism and drug abuse education, prevention, intervention, treatment and recovery.
