Active participation is defined as work that promotes and facilitates fulfilling the mission of LCRA including, but not limited to, serving on committees/workgroups focused on diverse projects designed to affect community perception of addiction recovery. Many projects will reflect directives obtained from federal, state or local grant-work.
