    We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Plum Creek Recovery Ranch for sponsoring our TAAP meeting yesterday. It was a great honor to have Taylor Ray, LPC, ATR from Plum Creek Recovery Ranch as our guest speaker. Her discussion on 'Art Therapy and Substance Use Disorders' was informative and deeply inspiring. We are grateful for the support and commitment of Plum Creek Recovery Ranch in our community. Their sponsorship played a pivotal role in the success of this event. The insights shared by Taylor Ray have certainly enriched our understanding and approach toward substance use disorders.
