I signed because it’s outrageous that people in Kentucky are being denied access to life-saving treatment! Providing MAT for all inmates isn’t optional—it’s essential to stop overdose deaths. It’s time for Kentucky to step up and do what’s right!
I signed because everyone deserves access to life-saving treatment, and providing MAT for incarcerated individuals is essential to reducing overdose deaths and breaking the cycle of addiction.
I signed because everyone deserves a chance at recovery, even those who are incarcerated. Medication-assisted treatment can save lives and help people struggling with addiction get back on their feet. This is something that needs to happen now! Thank you for bringing this to everybody’s attention.
