Harambee, located at 3939 Reisterstown Road, provides an array of clinical treatment services, but does not provide medication. The advantages to both the patient and the community are undeniable. Furthermore, treatment is an effective crime-reduction technique for a community. The public-private partnership enhances the array of treatment services available at Harambee and provides a site for R.E.A.C.H. to dispense medication and counseling at a cost far below that usually associated with expanding services and staff, or siting a new medication assisted treatment program.
Mobile services are just what the doctor ordered.
This unique collaborative effort provides flexibility in bringing treatment to the community without the inconvenience of a sited medication assisted treatment facility. We are pleased to have taken the lead in developing this innovative health care plan. Intranasal use has become more popular than injection, making heroin attractive to adolescents.
