title: Drug fighters coming by. Health system helps turn Atlantic City around.
abstract: AtlantiCare Health System knows firsthand the damage that drugs can do--both to the health and safety of its Atlantic City community and to its own bottom line. That's why it has spearheaded a collaborative effort among the police, residents, and community organizations to rid the city of drug dealers block by block. It's a long process, but one that's already having results.
