Anyone in immediate overdose crisis SHOULD CALL 911 or go to the closest emergency room.
Here are some options to help you find immediate and reliable support when you most need it.
Community in Crisis Volunteer Recovery Support
Community in Crisis can be your first call when you are in need of support. When appropriate, we can refer you to our volunteer recovery advocate who will offer support, guidance and extensive expertise to anyone in crisis themselves – or a family member of someone in crisis – to help them discuss the recovery path that best suits their desired outcome. Call Ken, CIC’s Director of Recovery Support, @ (973) 876-3378 and he will be able to get you connected to the help you need.
