Drug/Alcohol Treatment Resources

 

What is Straight … to Treatment?

It is a program created to help those who are caught in the powerful grip of addiction and substance abuse – but would like to break free – with the opportunity to be connected to a program to assist them with overcoming their addiction. 

Who operates the program?

The program was created by the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office and is operated in conjunction with the police departments of Evesham Township, Pemberton Township, Mount Holly and the City of Burlington, along with Oaks Integrated Care, Solstice Counseling and Wellness Center, Hand ‘n’ Heart and Maryville Addiction Treatment Center.

Is anyone eligible?

What if I don’t have insurance?

What if I have drugs I want to turn in?

Those who come in for help can bring drugs and drug paraphernalia to surrender to police without being charged with possession.
