Below are photos from the Alamance County Stepping Up Day of Action held at the Historic Depot in downtown Burlington on Wednesday, May 16th. The National Day of Action celebrated 2 years of the Stepping Up Initiative and included a hotdog lunch prepared and served by the Sheriff’s Department, with Smitty’s Homemade ice cream for dessert. Lunch was followed by a program held next door at the Paramount Theater featuring local leaders as well as featured guest Kurtis Taylor of the Alcohol/Drug Council of NC, as well as Kody Kinsley, Interim Director of the NC Division of MH/DD/SAS. The program highlighted information about the Stepping Up Initiative and the county efforts underway to address this critical issue within our community.
