South Burnett residents concerned about the impact of ice (methamphetamine) on their community are invited to attend an ice forum at Kingaroy Town Hall on Tuesday, June 6.<\/p>\n

Member for Maranoa David Littleproud is hosting a series of four forums across the Maranoa electorate to discuss the issue, which has been identified as a major health problem in rural Australia.<\/p>\n

“Whether you’re a user, recovering from addiction, a family member, a medical professional, or are involved in community support or law enforcement, we need an open and honest discussion,” Mr Littleproud said.<\/p>\n

“What works in one community may not be suitable for another, and that\u2019s why a targeted and engaged approach is so important.<\/p>\n

“There are more than 200,000 Australians using ice and I believe the solution lies in getting the right mix of services in each community.”<\/p>\n

Mr Littleproud said the Federal Government will invest $298 million over four years to combat illicit drug and alcohol use in Australia. <\/p>\n

He is hosting the forums in Chinchilla, Dalby, Kingaroy and Warwick to ensure Maranoa communities are represented and receive tailored support, preventative measures and treatment outcomes.<\/p>\n

“I want to work with the health, law enforcement and education sectors, along with drug-impacted community members, to develop locally focused action plans that improve both preventative measures and treatment outcomes in Maranoa.”<\/p>\n

The Kingaroy forum will be held at 7:30am.<\/p>\n

More information is available from Mr Littleproud’s electorate office on (07) 4662-2715.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
