Addiction Professional Joan Salmon

"I love being an addiction professional because not only do I get to assist individuals on their recovery journey with treatment, but through advocacy and policy change, and I wouldn't want to do anything else." - Joan Salmon with Behavioral Health and Support Services, The Family Center.
We asked addiction professionals what motivates them, and we'll be sharing their responses over the next few days in anticipation of Addiction Professionals Day on September 20, 2024.
Addiction professionals consistently provide high-quality, comprehensive care to prevent, intervene, support, educate and treat people receiving addiction services. We applaud all the addiction professionals who truly make a difference in the lives of New Yorkers!
