Is the Medication-Assisted Treatment program working in Clark County? Here's what we've learned
A new program aims to break the cycle of incarceration and addiction in Clark County.
New this morning, we're getting a look at the preliminary results and they appear to be promising.
The Medication-Assisted Treatment, or MAT, program began in February of last year at the Clark County Detention Center.
It starts in jail, offering struggling inmates access to substance use treatments. After they're released, they're connected to the nonprofit Vegas Stronger, which offers continued treatment and wraparound services like mental health support.
Anjali Patel interviewed Fred Haas last year with Metro's detention services division about the program, and he said it's that follow-up after they're released that makes all the difference.
We'll have cooler temperatures and higher humidity, with a slight chance of showers and storms by the afternoon hours. We're looking at a high of 102 degrees.
The slight chance continues on Saturday, but moves to sunny and dry on Sunday.
A couple of construction-related spots we are watching, including the 215 eastbound near Green Valley Parkway, but aside from that, nothing to really slow you down on the freeways this morning.
