Substance Abuse In Kittanning & Armstrong County

The county of Armstrong and the borough of Kittanning has had some success in reducing the cases of opioid abuse, a problem that is escalating in most of the state. Consider some interesting facts about drug use in this area:

  • Overdose deaths in Armstrong County have dropped significantly since 2016. That year, the county reported 41 overdose fatalities. In late 2018, the number was just three.
  • Armstrong has a proactive program to address the opioid crisis. Warm Hand-off provides residents with a place to go for help that is affordable and easily accessible. The county has also armed its first responders with Narcan, a drug that can reverse an overdose and save lives.

Traveling For The Best Program

Kittanning has only one option for substance abuse treatment. It is always a good idea, though, for families to look at other areas in the state, and facilities in neighboring states, to ensure they get the best treatment for their needs.
