Addiction Initiative 

The Missoula Area Chamber of Commerce has taken up the Addiction Initiative in response to the combination of the growing substance abuse and lack of resources for community members in recovery from addiction.

Breaking Down Workforce Barriers

In January of 2019, The Chamber's annual State of Missoula Luncheon panel focused on addiction concerns impacting Missoula's workforce and community. Speakers at the event included Montana State Attorney General Tim Fox, Dean Christensen of Missoula Police Department, and Levi Bessette, an addiction recovery advocate. 
The Chamber is still seeking business and community members to create an Addiction Initiative Task Force. If you would like to get involved in this initiative, please contact Kimberly Hannon at the Chamber.
