Disease of Addiction

As a Member of the Bipartisan Mental Health and Addiction Task Force, I care deeply about ending the disease of addiction in South Jersey and nationwide. I'm working aggressively in Congress to identify meaningful ways to help families dealing with this crisis, including by lowering barriers to care through my Opioid Treatment Access Act. Below, I wish to share with you resources I hope will be of assistance to you and your loved ones in times of crisis.
