The Queens Consortium is possible as a result of a collaboration with NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (NYCDOHMH) & the New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS).  Additionally, the Queens Consortium on Alcoholism and Substance Abuse is an active part of state level happenings in the field by their participation in various workgroups and being part of the NYS Association of Substance Abuse Providers (ASAP).
