Last week Plymouth County Outreach Operations Supervisor Vicky Butler and PAARI/ AmeriCorps Program Coordinator Hannah Carpenter (pictured above) attended the Bridgewater State University Resource Fair for Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder. Together, they provided students and faculty with information on what Plymouth County Outreach is and the work that is done through PCO. Thank you to the BSU Opioid Working Group, BSU Peer Educators and the Brockton Area Prevention Collaborative for putting on such an amazing event!
