San Mateo County Behavioral Health & Recovery Services and our community partners are  building a county-wide coalition to reduce the number of overdose deaths, increase access to recovery and treatment services, and improve the overall health of our community

Join our upcoming Meet & Greets!

The Meet & Greets are an opportunity for new members to connect with coalition partners and staff, learn about the work of our action teams, and identify ways to get involved to help ensure a county-wide, strategic, coordinated response to end overdoses in our county.
