B. The Master Plan Advisory Body

Oversight for the Master Plan is provided by a Master Plan Advisory Body (MPAB). The core of the MPAB consists of the membership of the County Drug and Alcohol Advisory Board (DAAB). In order to ensure that the MPAB includes all of the representatives designated by the state, a number of individuals representing constituencies not already present on the DAAB were invited to join.

The DAAB has an Executive Committee, consisting of the Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary. There are four standing committees: Membership, Prevention, Visiting, and Budget and Planning.
