Join A. Thomas McLellan, deputy director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy in the Executive Office of the President of the United States, as he discusses national drug demand reduction priorities and its implications for the nation, community and providers. The event will be Monday, April 19, 4 p.m., in the Albin O. Kuhn Library, 7th Floor.
McLellan brings 35 years of addiction treatment research to the position, most recently at the Treatment Research Institute, a non-profit organization he co-founded in 1992 to transform the way science is used to understand substance abuse. McLellan’s contributions to the advancement of substance abuse research and the application of these findings to treatment systems and public policy have changed the landscape of addiction science and improved the lives of countless Americans and their families.
This is the Psychology Distinguished Lecture and is sponsored by the Department of Psychology.
