Message From Our CEO
Abigail Moore
Chief Executive Officer
It is my great honor and privilege to serve as the CEO for the San Antonio Council on Alcohol and Drug Awareness. I passionately believe in the great work this organization has provided our community since 1957, and I’m excited about the new opportunities we have in bringing hope and healing through prevention and intervention services.
We know that substance misuse is one of the leading problems that impact San Antonio. It is a significant factor in broken homes, domestic violence, child abuse, health problems, soaring medical costs, crime, DWI fatalities, unplanned pregnancies, school performance problems, truancy, high dropout rates, loss of productivity and many workplace issues. Its effects reach far beyond the user- to family, friends, the workplace, and the entire community.
Collaboration with other organizations and agencies is crucial in preventing substance misuse and addiction. Working with our many partners, we are making our community safe and healthier. By utilizing community assessments and implementing evidence-based strategies, we will be able to monitor our success and be strategic in all the work we do.
I’m extremely grateful to our Board of Directors, Staff and Community Partners for their unwavering support of the San Antonio Council on Alcohol and Drug Awareness. Together, we’re reducing the impact of substance misuse and addiction.
Sincerely,
Abigail Moore MA, LPC, LCDC, ACPS
