Drug and Alcohol Treatment Guide
Meadville Medical Center in collaboration with local government agencies
has created an online resource guide for anyone seeking support in the
treatment of drug and alcohol addiction.
- Let's Talk...is the three-year initiative to overcome addiction in
our community funded by the Meadville Medical Center Foundation, in partnership
with the Crawford County Overdose Prevention Coalition. The Meadville
Medical Center Foundation will be sponsoring various initiatives over
the next three years to overcome addiction. Founded in 1992, the Meadville
Medical Center Foundation was established to meet the identified healthcare
needs in the region. The primary focus of the Foundation is to advance
the long-term health of the community by funding new services and equipment
at the Meadville Medical Center (MMC). The disease of addiction is a family
disease, and the aim of overcoming addiction advances the long-term health
of our community. The Meadville Medical Center Foundation is asking "Let's
Talk...". Together we can overcome addiction in our community.
- The coalition is a diverse mix of people from social services, healthcare
professions, school administrations, families, and the community, all
coming together to fight and make Crawford County free from overdoses
and overdose deaths. If you want to get involved or learn more, please
contact Jayme Ferry at the Crawford County Drug and Alcohol Executive
Commission. You can call her at: (814) 807-0079 or email her at: jferry@ccdaec.org
