Washington — President Trump signed an executive order Thursday evening to coordinate a federal government response to drug addiction and substance abuse. According to a White House fact sheet, the order will create a "White House Great American Recovery Initiative," which will advise federal agencies on directing grants to support addiction recovery and aim to increase awareness about drug addiction. The group will advise agencies on how to integrate programs on drug prevention, early intervention, treatment, recovery support and re-entry. Kathryn Burgum, who is married to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, struggled with alcoholism before becoming sober 22 years ago and is a vocal advocate for addiction recovery. The new initiative follows an aggressive campaign from the White House to target and strike alleged drug traffickers in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific.
