In recognition of National Recovery Month, host Sheriff Fred Harran dedicates this episode to a frank and personal discussion about the substance abuse crisis devastating communities in Bucks County and across the nation.

Drawing from 39 years in law enforcement and his own family's experience, Sheriff Harran confronts the staggering statistics behind overdose deaths and the terrifying rise of substances like Fentanyl and Xylazine ("Trank").

But this isn't just about the problem; it's about the solutions. Discover why Bucks County is a leader in its response, implementing groundbreaking initiatives like the Co-Responder program, the BPAIR "warm hand-off" system, and an immediate-access assessment center in the Justice Center.

Join us for a powerful episode that combines hard truths with actionable hope, exploring how law enforcement, community partners, and compassionate policy can come together to combat the crisis and support those who are not bad people trying to be good, but "sick people trying to become well."
