            RECOGNIZING THE OPENING OF THE LIVE4LALI CLINIC

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ROBERT J. DOLD

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 26, 2015

  Mr. DOLD. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Chelsea LaLiberte 
and Jody Daitchman, as well as the other hardworking volunteers, on the 
opening of the Live4Lali clinic in Arlington Heights, Ill.
  In the Chicago suburbs, somebody dies of a heroin overdose every 
three days. Cheaper than cigarettes and more accessible than alcohol, 
heroin has become a plague on our suburbs. Ms. LaLiberte and Ms. 
Daitchman recognized that our community and suburbs across the country 
are struggling with this epidemic, and they have taken bold and 
courageous action to prevent people from falling victim to drug abuse.
  Their efforts have already saved countless lives and the Live4Lali 
clinic will undoubtedly save countless more. I offer my deepest thanks 
for their work in helping to strengthen our community, and I urge the 
Members of this House to help us empower these agents of change by 
getting drug abuse prevention programs the funding they need.
