An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.177, No.175), known as The Administrative Code of 1929, in powers and duties of the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, further providing for powers and duties.
HB 2403 updates the official duties of Pennsylvania's Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs by requiring it to coordinate and promote compliance with the state's drug and alcohol prevention and treatment plan. The bill mandates that the department submit an annual report to state legislative committees within 90 days of the law's effective date and by January 31 each year thereafter. This report must detail actions taken to expand education, prevention, and recovery programs, list funds spent, and include evaluations of grant outcomes and program effectiveness. The changes take effect immediately upon passage, formalizing how the department tracks and reports on its services and spending.
