We are saddened to share the passing of Stacia Murphy, NCADD’s former National Director, who died this past February in Charleston, South Carolina, where she had lived since her retirement.

Stacia led NCADD during one of its most influential periods and was a dedicated steward of our mission. Having come through the affiliate ranks, she deeply understood the strength and importance of the NCADD network and helped shape the foundation that continues to guide our work today.

We remember Stacia with gratitude for her leadership, service, and lasting impact on NCADD and the broader field.

Action Alert: Tell Congress - No More Cuts to Medicaid - Just months after passage of H.R. 1, which included nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts, Congress is again considering additional reductions by freezing, withholding, and delaying federal funding. The U.S. House’s official “Find Your Representative” tool lets people look up their member of Congress by ZIP code and access contact information directly.

These cuts would be devastating. The Congressional Budget Office estimates H.R. 1 alone will cause 10 million people to lose health coverage, including 7.5 million Medicaid beneficiaries. For individuals living with mental health conditions and substance use disorders, Medicaid is a lifeline.

At a time when our nation continues to face overdose and su***de crises, we should be strengthening access to treatment and recovery support—not weakening it.

Take action today: Contact your Representative and urge them to oppose any further cuts to Medicaid.

Find your Representative here: https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

Your voice matters. Lives are on the line.

NCADD applauds the White House’s decision to reverse the proposed cuts to critical mental health and substance use grant funding.

These dollars help communities across the country deliver prevention, treatment, recovery support, and crisis services—resources people depend on every day.

We’re relieved by the reversal, and we’ll keep advocating for stable, reliable federal support so services aren’t disrupted and lives aren’t put at risk.
