Amazing news from The City of Manchester! 👏

For the first time since 2015, last month Manchester experienced zero overdose fatalities. To be clear, every life lost is a tragedy and the nature of addiction is variable. We continue to be encouraged with the progress we are making as a result of our efforts with our community partners.
