Thank you to volunteer Angel Freda V. for her help this month. And—as always—sincere gratitude to the many law enforcement agencies and community partners who collaborated with us (𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀). 👮

When someone decides they're ready for help, that moment matters.

But too often, barriers get in the way—confusion about where to go, fear of judgment, or not knowing who to call.

Hope Not Handcuffs was created to break down barriers.

Anyone struggling with drug or alcohol addiction can walk into one of more than 150 participating police departments or community partners and simply ask for help. From there, they're connected to FAN's Hope Not Handcuffs Call Center, where trained staff work to place them into treatment.

For those who can't walk in, help is just a phone call away. The Hope Line (833.202.4673) is available from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, 365 days a year.
