Our Services
Coaches make every attempt to immediately connect with those who have experienced an overdose to provide support and resources. If they are unable to connect with an individual over the phone, the coach will then send the individual a text message. If it is deemed appropriate, in some cases, the recovery coach will contact emergency services and address any concerns requiring immediate attention.
