Innovation
- 📦 A harm reduction box is now installed in downtown Statesboro, expanding access to lifesaving health resources. Located next to the Care Station in the BIG Alley, it provides fentanyl test strips and naloxone to help prevent overdoses. 👏 📍58 E Main St, Statesboro - x.com
- 💬 I campaigned on doing everything possible to combat the fentanyl crisis, and we are tackling the crisis from every angle. From urging the passage of legislation that increased penalties for fentanyl distribution, acquiring the 1st fentanyl-detecting K9s, to delivering naxolone distribution boxes to 40 locations around the state, our goal is to save lives. You can help by finding a distribution box and keeping a naloxone kit with you. You never know when you might be in a position to save someone's life. - x.com
