Our History
The Initiative
The Initiative
Due to the severe nature of the overdose crisis, in 2013, a group of local stakeholders developed a comprehensive opioid prevention strategy for Lake County. Several groups, including Nicasa Behavioral Health Services, Live4Lali, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office, and the Round Lake Park Police Department, worked together to develop the outline for the opioid prevention plan – considered a model for Illinois and for the nation by the Obama White House.
