California Department of Alcohol and Drugs Program
Director's Advisory Council (DAC) Quarterly Meeting



Director Renee Zito will speak at the DAC meeting on April 23 in Sacramento. DAC is comprised of judges, directors of statewide provider organizations, the president of the County Administrators Alcohol and Drug Programs Association of California, and the chairs of eight constituency advisory committees. The eight constituent committees are African American, Asian Pacific Islander, Aging, Disability, Latino, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT), Native American and Women. DAC is responsive to critical issues from judges, counties, and the larger alcohol and drug field, identifies barriers to access for traditionally unserved/underserved populations, and provides feedback to the community. Stakeholders identify and discuss issues and build consensus in major policy areas that impact the alcohol and other drug service systems and clients.
