The Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) 2.0 has been introduced in the Senate. The bill proposes an additional $1 billion in funding for critical programs in addition to providing a 3-day limit on opioid prescriptions for acute pain.
We support adding a provision to CARA that would create a dedicated funding stream for family support programs throughout the United States. We know that family support programs and services, which are so vital when seeking recovery from addiction, are in short supply due to lack of funding. Please encourage your Senators to co-sponsor CARA 2.0 with the inclusion of early intervention resources for families.
