Organizations that help those in long term recovery from drugs and alcohol are asking state lawmakers for $2 million to help fund Narcan for first responders, especially in more rural parts of the state. GPB’s Ellen Eldridge reports.

When everything shut down in March 2020, many folks struggling with opioid use disorder found themselves isolated, alone and increasingly lonely — circumstances that can lead to the return of negative thinking and guilt, two of the key elements in a relapse.

Nationwide, rates of substance abuse and deaths by overdose surged between April 2020 and April 2021.

In fact, the country broke a record for the highest number of drug deaths in a 12-month period, according to the director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. Dr. Rahul Gupta on Nov. 19 was sworn in as the first-ever physician to serve in this position.

He said he has seen firsthand the heartbreak of the overdose epidemic.

“I’ve learned that an overdose is a cry for help, and for far too many people, that cry goes unanswered,” Gupta said during the ceremony.

But Gupta said he has also seen how public safety and public health leaders can work together to develop strategies that save lives.

That includes harm reduction.

A study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows one in every 23 women who inject drugs will become infected with HIV in their lifetime. That number is one in every 36 for men using intravenous substances.

Reboot Jackson is one of 38 recovery community organizations — or RCOs — throughout Georgia, the largest of which is the Georgia Council on Substance Abuse.

Jonathan Langston traveled from Jackson County, a rural county with a population of just over 60,000 people, to Atlanta to meet with lawmakers at the state Capitol shortly before the Thanksgiving holiday.

Rural communities are in a particularly vulnerable position when it comes to funding for Narcan, a nasal spray that can save a person who is actively dying during an overdose, for first responders. There is a higher overdose rate per capita in rural communities across Georgia than that of urban areas, according to the Georgia Opioid Overdose Annual Surveillance Report from 2020. Counties such as Bibb, Houston, Coffee, Crisp and Dawson have experienced more than 60 overdose-related emergency department visits per 100,000 people whereas counties such as Fulton and DeKalb have had less than 50 per 100,000 people.
