In a pivotal move to address the pressing issue of drug overdoses and bolster accessibility to vital services, BWROC proudly announces the expansion of its transportation services in St. Clair County.
Funded through the Michigan opioid settlement, this initiative, effective December 10th, aims to bridge the gap for economically disadvantaged individuals seeking treatment or recovery support services.
The extended services will now cover transportation to Recovery Support Groups, Recovery Events, detox facilities, treatment centers, hospitals, and other recovery-related needs. By prioritizing the reduction of health disparities and enhancing long-term recovery opportunities, BWROC strives to overcome obstacles faced by those in need.
Recognizing the critical role transportation plays as a barrier to treatment, BWROC remains steadfast in its commitment to filling community gaps and is grateful for the opportunity to provide this essential service.
