Drug Forum on Wednesday

East Hampton High School will host a forum addressing drug and alcohol abuse and addiction on Wednesday night, beginning at 5:45 in the school auditorium and open to students, parents, and the community at large.

It will be the second such event at the high school. The first, held in March, drew more than 150 people.

Wednesday’s discussion will again feature remarks by Steve Chassman, executive director of the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. Nick Kardaras, executive director of the Dunes of East Hampton, a rehabilitation facility, will also speak, as will a representative from the office of the Suffolk County Medical Examiner.

Those who attend will be able to network with professionals from organizations that can assist people who are coping with addiction, including Narcotics Anonymous, the Family Service League, the East Hampton Town Department of Human Services, and others. The high school is at 2 Long Lane.
