WE KNOW THERE IS ONE, BUT, THE PUBLIC KNOWS LITTLE ABOUT THE LODI DRUG ALLIANCE, UNTIL 2016.
LodiBorough.org

AND WHERE IS THIS FOR 2017 ????????


OTHER TOWNS IN THIS AREA DO HAVE A MUNICIPAL DRUG ALLIANCE, AND THEY INFORM THE PUBLIC ABOUT IT.

THIS IS A WONDERFUL THING, AND THE RIGHT THING TO TEACH OUR YOUNGSTERS ABOUT DRUGS & ADDICTION, BUT……

DOES LODI HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM…YES WE DO, AND IT IS POINTED OUT IN RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

ACCORDING TO THE ABOVE REPORTS & PUBLICATIONS, LODI HAD THE HIGHEST OVERDOSE RELATED DEATHS IN BERGEN COUNTY.

YOU DO NOT SEE THESE "NARCAN SAVES" ANYMORE, WHY, IT SHOWS LODI DOES HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM
