Addiction Services & Fentanyl Crisis

Factual background and legislative updates on this specific area of concern.

The fentanyl crisis has heavily impacted families across the Rogue Valley, exposing severe shortages in detox beds, residential treatment facilities, and outpatient recovery programs in Jackson County.

With the passage of HB 4002, which modified Measure 110, Jackson County is implementing local deflection programs. The goal is to coordinate law enforcement, public defenders, and healthcare providers to offer individuals a direct path to treatment. However, debates persist over whether the local treatment capacity is sufficient to handle the volume of individuals redirected from the criminal justice system.
