Dr. Anthony DeLucia
VetSASA (Veterans Substance Abuse Support Alliance) of Northeast Tennessee is already a product of the work of volunteers in the eight county region it serves. Its essential mission is identifying and helping all those drug-recovered/recovering Veterans to find employment and other essential services. To form the collaborative teams needed, fill gaps in our area’s efforts, celebrate our wins, large and small, and widely/effectively communicate our issues, only the “state of the art” tools available are part of the arsenal of VetSASA. From the work of its volunteers and East Tennessee State University, a key strategic partner, a short-term goal is by the spring of 2023 to determine if VetSASA continues on with more efforts like those addressed above. By strategically doing so, the region’s partners are joined in helping fill critical vacancies in our workforce. Also importantly, they are addressing homelessness/adequate shelter, individual and family needs for food, clothing, transportation, child care, and education/skills training, etc., so important in this fragile environment of the lingering impacts of COVID-19. As a fledgling organization, not off the ground yet, there is much to be done to make the VetSASA team more productive. Membership is currently awaiting notice on potential funding from the Appalachian Regional Commission under their Investments Supporting Partnerships in Recovering Ecosystems - INSPIRE program.

Addiction Science Center
The ETSU Center for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment, established in 2016, enters the new year with a new name, the ETSU Addiction Science Center (ASC). The change is part of a concerted effort to keep pace with the evolving nature of the opioid crisis, whereby heroin and fentanyl are now the leading cause of unintentional overdose death in the US, not prescribed pain medications. In addition, the new name provides an opportunity to expand research efforts to include the study of co-morbid health conditions and poly-substance misuse incorporating studies focused on the resurgence of methamphetamine use across the country.

FARM Technologies
FARM YOUR WAY WITH OUR MATH"Helping farmers integrate technologies to reduce time-consuming tasks, without needing to modify personal farming techniques."
Introducing SCAREcrow, a set of algorithms we're developing and testing to help reduce mundane farm tasks.
The idea for SCAREcrow farming technologies springs from our own farming journey at
Old Hughes Farm.
Each SCAREcrow algorithm will be designed so that farmers will not face a significant
learning curve, can fine-tune the algorithm to each farming location and technique,
and frees the frame to focus on other, more important tasks.
Our first project is centered on anomaly detection (the SCARE in SCAREcrow stands
for Sub-Canopy Anomaly Reconnaissance and Engagement).
Our end goal is to help make farming a bit more efficient and personally rewarding.
