ALPHA Behavioral Health meets everyone where they are in their journey, and aims to save lives in any way possible. That's why we provide fentanyl and xylaxine testing kits, as well as Naloxone at our vending machines and all ALPHA locations. Thank you to the Chesterfield Opioid Abatement Coalition Director, Karen Short and Kershaw & Lee County Opioid Abatement Coalition Director, LeAnna Adams for sharing this message and these vital resources within our communities. Overdose prevention saves lives - and so do these resources.
