I Think I Need Help

You are in trouble.

Call us. We won’t judge. We will get you the help you need – usually right here in Somerset County.

Making a Difference

“We have staff certified to train family members and friends of opioid users because we want to get Naloxene in the hands of the people who can reverse an overdose to keep their loved one alive. This gives us the opportunity to get that individual into treatment which can ultimately lead to recovery.”

Matey Barker, Somerset County Health Department, Behavioral Health Director
