(May 25, 2021) – The University of Kentucky’s $87 million HEALing Communities Study has partnered with Voices of Hope and the Madison County Detention Center to increase access to medication for opioid use disorder for people who are being released from the jail. The Madison County Detention Center, under the leadership of Jailer Steve Tussey, detains about 5,600 people per year. The jail is located in Richmond, Ky. and does not currently have a substance use treatment program. Madison County is one of the 16 Kentucky counties participating in the HEALing Communities Study. The study has the ultimate goal of reducing opioid overdose deaths by 40% in participating communities that represent more than a third of Kentucky’s population.
