This event marks the beginning of a month-long opioid awareness initiative aimed at educating and mobilizing the community against substance abuse. 

 

The Queen Anne’s County Office of the Sheriff and the Queen Anne’s County Drug-Free Coalition, in collaboration with Queen Anne’s County Department of Health, Queen Anne's County Public Schools, Queen Anne’s County Chamber of Commerce, Queen Anne’s County Department of Emergency Services and the Queen Anne's County Commissioners, are proud to present the "QAC Goes Purple" campaign.
