Dear Friends,

What a remarkable journey this past year has been. Inthe small fishing community of GloucesterMassachusetts was born the simple idea that we cannotarrest our way out of the opiate epidemic. In just over ayear PAARI has grown into a nationwide movement oflaw enforcement and service providers with a unifiedmission of providing compassionate access to treatmentinstead of arrest. To date, we have helped create morethan 160 police-based programs nationwide, with newpolice departments joining every week.

We cannot thank you enough for your crucial support increating this impact.

Our partners have saved thousands of lives butnearly 100 Americans die everyday from heroin andopioid overdoses and there is much work to be done. Wehope you will partner with us to deepen and expand thistransformative work in the year ahead.

Sincerely,

John E. RosenthalCo-Founder + Chairman

Allie Hunter McDadeExecutive Director

Our Model

Drug overdose is the leading cause of accidental deathin the US. In 2014, there were 18,893 overdose deathsrelated to prescription painkillers and 10,574 overdosedeaths from heroin. From 2001 to 2014 there was a 6-fold increase in the number of heroin-related deaths anda 3.4-fold increase in the number of deaths related toprescription opioids.

After a series of overdose deaths, in June 2015 theGloucester Police Department launched the AngelInitiative, which promised that any individual walkinginto the police station to request help getting intotreatment and recovery from opioid addiction would beimmediately helped, not arrested.

Due to overwhelming interest in the program, the PoliceAssisted Addiction & Recovery Initiative (PAARI) wascreated as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization thatsupports law enforcement agencies in establishing andrunning their own pre-arrest addiction and recoveryprograms to help more individuals into treatment andrecovery. PAARI collaborates with stakeholders acrossvarious sectors to provide funding, training, access totreatment centers, nasal naloxone, and a network oflike-minded law enforcement agencies.
