Addiction doesn’t discriminate.
It doesn’t care about age, income, background, or status.
It affects our friends.
Our neighbors.
Our coworkers.
Our family. And the reality is that it’s closer than most of us think.
In Yamhill County, opioid overdose deaths are happening at a rate higher than the state average. These aren’t just statistics. These are real people. Real families. Real loss. Addiction often lives in silence, in shame, and often behind closed doors but recovery starts when we stop pretending it’s “someone else’s problem.”
It’s all around us. And so is hope.
If you or someone you love is struggling, know this:
You’ve got options.
Help is here. Recovery is possible.
