Governor’s Weekly Message: Expanding Treatment Services to Fight Addiction

(Wilmington, DE) – In his weekly message, Governor Markell outlines the most significant expansion of Delaware’s treatment services in over a decade in a proposal he announced earlier this week.

“Across our state, families are worried that if their loved ones aren’t soon connected to treatment, any single day could be their last,” said Governor Markell. “By connecting people to the services and support they need, and by remembering that a lost opportunity for them is a missed opportunity for all of us to benefit from their talents, we’ll fight this disease and save lives – and that will keep Delaware moving forward.”

Every week, the Governor’s office releases a new Weekly Message in video, audio, and transcript form. The message is available on:
