'We help people with addiction': Elk Grove Village puts Narcan machine in police department lobby
Elk Grove Village is opening new lanes on the road to recovery for community members struggling with substance abuse.
The machine holds 54 units of Narcan and will be maintained by the Kenneth Young Center, an Elk Grove-based organization that provides mental health and addiction recovery services. "We don't just say, 'Oh, you need help? Go there.' Or, 'You need help? Here's a phone number,'" Johnson said."We take you in. We sit with you. We find you a place to put you in for inpatient care, outpatient care. Whatever your level of need is, we find it for you."
