If it can be done in Sullivan County, it should be done in all counties. 
Today marks a new dawn in addressing drug overdoses in Sullivan County.
Hope Not Handcuffs, the Village of Liberty Police Department, and the County of Sullivan have teamed together to form the first-ever Sullivan County "Quick Response Team".
The Quick Response Team will respond to any person in Sullivan County who has had a non-fatal overdose within 24 to 72 hours after the incident.
The team will bring educational materials, self-care supplies and Narcan, and will discuss the benefits of seeking treatment. Stigmas will be addressed. Peer Recovery and Family Addiction Recovery services will be offered.
Together, we can make a difference and curb the scourge of substance use disorder.
