The LuLac Edition #3751, April 5th, 2018
The heritage Knights of Columbus Council President John F. Kennedy Council #372 will be holding an Opioid Fact Forum on Thursday April 19th at the Pittston Memorial Library. The Family committee of the Knights has coordinated the event.
Carmen Ambrosino, well known for his forty five years as an addiction professional will moderate the event. Panelists will include Carol Coolbaugh, Community Education Advocate and mother who will discuss the loss of her son. Judge Michael Vough will take you through a day in his Court room. Coroner William Lisman will present his all too frequent role as the final destination for those afflicted with Opioids.
The goal of this forum is to present information on what happens to families of faith when Opioids are abused. The Knights Council and Assembly in Pittston recognize that this is an issue that touches all lives and every social level. In the Luzerne County alone there were over 150 deaths attributed to Opioid abuse. The deaths ranged in ages from 18 to 73.
This impactful, hard hitting event is FREE and light refreshments will be served. Mark your calendar, April 19th, 6:30 to 8pm.
