Drug Prevention & Resources
In response to a growing local and nationwide opioid problem, several Ramsey County agencies, including the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office, have partnered with Mn Adult & Teen Challenge and Know the Truth Prevention Program to create the Ramsey County Coalition. Together, we have created the #NotAnotherOverdose campaign to bring opioid awareness, prevention, and resources to our community.
In 2017, 72 opioid overdoses were reported in Ramsey County.
Public service announcements
The Sheriff's Office has partnered with Know the Truth to create two public service announcements that began airing in local movie theaters in April 2018. It's just one piece of ensuring the #NotAnotherOverdose message is communicated as widely as possible.
