Pennsylvania Police Chief is Working to Get Addicts Help Instead of Sending them to Jail
On today's episode of Felony Friday we're going to be discussing a very unique and important program in Pennsylvania: SecondChancePA
SecondChancePA is a pre-arrest diversion program for addicts. The Elizabethtown Borough and Northwest Regional Police Departments have joined forces with Blueprints for Addiction Recovery, Inc. to establish resources in favor of rehabilitation over incarceration, hope over helplessness, life over death.
BluePrints for Addiction Recovery CEO Christopher Dreisbach and Elizabethtown Police Chief Edward M. Cunningham joined John Odermatt to share the details about this revolutionary partnership.
