Under the federal DOJ grant obtained by John Gourde, a strong North Dakota delegation attended the RISE24 conference. The event aimed to provide attendees with insights into drug trends, best practice standards, and the psychology of addiction, among other topics.
"The energy was palpable, and motivation was ignited to continue the good work our drug courts do across the state," said an attendee.
The conference provided a platform for participants to exchange knowledge and strategies that could enhance their efforts in addressing substance abuse issues within their communities.
