The public is invited to join the Cumberland County Rising drug coalition. The next meeting is Monday, May 6, at 4 p.m. in the conference room in the Crossville City Hall, off Main Street.

Meetings last one hour and feature updates on future programs and activities, education and information sharing on efforts to combat addiction and, often, a special program.

Anyone interested in joining the effort to make positive changes in the community, who has experienced addiction in the family, or who is seeking a way to give back to the area is welcome to attend.
