Billboard promotes launch of program to fight methamphetamine and opioid addiction

A colorful billboard bearing the message “There’s Always Hope” marking the launch of Project Hope was revealed this week in Menomonie, WI.

The billboard is sponsored by the Dunn County Partnership for Youth and marks the launch of Project Hope, a collaborative program between many local agencies aiming at reducing methamphetamine and opioid addiction and their related crimes in Dunn County.

Project Hope is an evidence-based program used to reduce methamphetamine/opioid addictions and their ancillary crimes. Project Hope consists of four strategic pillars — prevention, treatment, enforcement and harm reduction — that holistically address drug addiction and crime.

The first phase of Project Hope will bring implementation of the Botvin LifeSkills Training program in schools, youth mentoring and the creation of a Youth Response Team that will focus on information sharing and collaboration between stakeholders.
