The addiction treatment system needs an upgrade. The systems meant to protect and serve the community are broken and disconnected, and have greatly multiplied the destructive power of heroin. This book shows the way forward. SHARP Stop Heroin and Rescue People is about creating systematic rescue. The first part of this book shows how to build a strong path to safety using resources we have in communities today. The second part is for individuals, friends, and families, those of us who must follow the path from the point of active heroin use to the point of safety and recovery. The third part is for all of us. It is about creating the kind of environment that prevents heroin use and sustains recovery.
