I support this!
 

I primarily work with young adults. I’m noticing a trend of kids earlier and earlier using substances such as cocaine and fentanyl. Having access to MAT is crucial for all patients seeking support. The goal is helping clients get in the door, and with substances literally killing people at a rapid pace we need policies like this to change in order to mitigate.
