Tell me you don’t know anything about Narcan, without actually telling me. 😡

I want to be clear:

Narcan absolutely does block the opioid receptors in your brain.
Narcan is going to put you into some level of withdrawal (that’s why we practice compassionate comeback)
NARCAN SAVED YOUR LIFE.

When Narcan is used on someone experiencing an overdose, no one is trying to “blow your high”. The harsh reality is that if someone needs Narcan they are unresponsive and not breathing. Administering Narcan and providing rescue breaths is SAVING THEIR LIFE.

We would like to thank Murphy’s Giving Market for their continued support of Recovery Without Barriers. This year Murphy’s has chosen to provide us with a generous grant that will assist us in serving the homeless and those struggling with substance use disorder, across Delaware County.

We are truly blessed by this our partnership with Murphy’s Giving Market and look forward to future collaboration.

Recovery Without Barriers would like to acknowledge an article recently released by Patch news outlet.

OCAN was started as an organization that provided services for those in active substance use and their families. While we had partnered in the past, we stopped working with OCAN as soon as allegations were brought to our attention. We find these charges to be extremely troubling, and the reason those who need help often don’t come forward. Thank you to those who have and will come forward, your bravery is inspiring.

RWB has and always will be a SAFE SPACE for anyone looking for treatment, housing, escape from a bad situation, or just a shoulder to lean on when things get heavy. We are here to offer 100% support for these, and all victims experiencing such crimes against them.

You are not alone, we stand with you!!

The executive director of a Delco opioid support organization used his power to get women to perform s*x acts on him, authorities said.

The first heat wave of the summer is upon us and our homeless friends need a place to cool off! Luckily, our amazing partners at Upper Darby American Legion Post 214 are opening their doors on Monday for a cooling center and ALL are welcome!

OUR ASK: we would be so grateful if our community could donate board games they no longer use.

If you can drop off we will be at the American Legion tomorrow at 1 for set up and then at noon on Monday.

Tonight was a great night!! Tonight we are winning!!

A huge thank you to Dave Schaffer for not just providing tonight’s dinner but for bringing his grill down and cooking up hot dogs and hamburgers! It was such a special treat for our 69th St friends!

But the big win tonight was getting someone into treatment! Sometimes all it takes is a business card and making a connection! Thank you to Lauren from MVP Recovery, and her ability to quickly secure a place in treatment.

If you or someone you know is struggling with Substance use Disorder, reach out to Recovery Without Barriers for help, we are available 24/7! Today is Your Day!!

Solutions to the crisis in suburban communities include; Encourage community activities, Work to reduce stigma surrounding mental health, Ensure that individuals have access to mental health services, including food, and daily necessities.
