Marchman Act Workgroup
The DCF Substance Abuse Program Office has assembled a workgroup which includes two Corporation board members, Judge Melanie May and Judge Mark Speiser, and Corporation Executive Director, Ellen Piekalkiewicz, to explore issues in implementation of the Marchman Act. The goal of the workgroup is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Marchman Act and to recommend solutions to make the act a more useful tool.
