Operation Elk County Seeking Your Assistance

• 

Operation Elk County is seeking to speak directly with individuals and families who have lost a loved one to either incidents involving alcohol, in particular family members who lost a love one due to an alcohol related motor vehicle crash, or with individuals and families who have lost a loved one to controlled substance use, in particular family members who have lost a loved one due to a drug overdose.   The purpose of Operation Elk County reaching out to individuals and families who are survivors is to receive their valuable input and perspective in developing programs that effectively communicate the foreseeable and unforeseeable consequences of individuals engaging in the consumption of alcohol and operating a motor vehicle as well as using controlled substances.    Operation Elk County intends to develop two focus groups; one for alcohol related incident survivors and another for controlled substance use survivors to listen, understand and develop effective strategies to prevent individuals from engaging in such behaviors as well as preventing future loss of lives.
