DHHS Shoutouts: NASW-NC Advocate of the Year, Walter B. Jones Staff Fields Calls On-Air About Opioids and More

Chase Holleman, left, participated in an opioid roundtable in High Point with Governor Roy Cooper in 2017.

Chase Holleman was selected by the National Association of Social Workers North Carolina Chapter as the recipient of the 2018 Myrna Miller Wellons Advocate of the Year Award for his work on improving state policies to address the opioid epidemic. He will receive the award at the NASW-NC Social Work Ethics Conference and Awards Luncheon on March 23 in Durham.

Dr. Sonya Longest, Jade Butler, Jim Holland, Geraldine Jones and Kathy Schutz from Walter B. Jones Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Center recently took questions from callers during a WNCT event about opioids and treatment options. 

Jennifer Woodstock, a Certified Physician Assistant at Broughton Hospital, recently earned a specialty credential, a Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ), from the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants.

We’re looking for DHHS people and partners to give "shoutouts" to. Know of someone who deserves a shoutout? Reach out to your Division’s Communications Manager or email news@dhhs.nc.gov.
