The Kentucky River Health Consortium held an event called “Picking up the Pieces” at the Perry County Public Library, aiming to make a difference in the lives of individuals in the Kentucky River Region. During the event, officials highlighted the importance of understanding that addiction is not a choice but often a result of chronic diseases like diabetes that require medication for treatment.
Frances Feltner, Director of the Center of Excellence in Rural Health, emphasized the need for family and friends to support and help individuals struggling with addiction. The event brought together various organizations through the Kentucky River Health Consortium to collaborate and share resources on tackling addiction.
Key topics discussed during the event included Casey’s Law, which provides a legal means for family members to intervene and help individuals struggling with addiction. Attendees, including a man named Andrew who shared his personal journey battling substance abuse, highlighted the importance of family support and resources like Casey’s Law in overcoming addiction.
