Drug Treatment Access and Referrals

“WE GET IT” One of our core strengths is our ability to engage people in their own place, space and time. Our team of Drug Treatment Advocates is among the most experienced in the region. We believe that “No One Seeking Treatment should ever be denied a Shot at Hope”. The Northeast Neighborhood has the highest crime rate in the city. The VFZ is home to more than 3,400 of our children and young adults. The opportunity is tremendous.

The National Violence Free Zone or VFZ model was developed more than two decades ago to help low-income neighborhoods address problems such as violent crimes, drug abuse, and other quality of life issues. Importantly, it is implemented by local organizations – the true neighborhood experts – working in close partnerships.
