Live4RJ  Chester County Drug Overdose Prevention Everything we do we believe we can make a difference. We believe in those who struggling until they believe in themselves. Call us! Recovery is possible! Live4RJ

We make what seems impossible possible and work with those affected by addiction get there. We started this page in 2014 as a way to educate the community. At that time there was a huge issue with stigma and lack of resources known to community members. Facebook and this page were a vehicle to reach those looking for help and hope. We're all in this together. Some of us know someone or have had those close to us suffer from addiction. We don't want others to go through what we have. I lost my son RJ Zwaan in 20018 to an accidental prescription drug overdose. He was only 17. A tragic accident somehow spiraled into an epidemic and sadly many more young lives in our community were lost to addiction and overdose deaths. Our goal is to help spread hope and awareness and education in the hopes of preventing addiction and overdose deaths plaguing the children and young adults in our county. They are our future. Talk to them, empower them. Help them and help us make a difference in speaking out, educating those around you. Get involved in reform justice and reaching journeys.

For the last THREE YEARS, Delaware has been sitting on MILLIONS of dollars from the opioid settlement, and NOTHING has been done with it. 🤯

It’s heartbreaking to see the lack of action from our leaders when this money could be used to help families, support recovery, and save lives.

We need leaders who show up, take action, and prioritize the people they represent! 🗳️

Remember: You get what you vote for. It's time for a change. ✊
