The Angels of Hope Not Handcuffs
Radio Catskill’s Patricio got a chance to talk to the program director for Hope not Handcuffs and some of the angels who volunteer to help those in need.
I’m Patricio Robayo for Radio Catskill. In this episode, we will get to explore a program that looks to help find viable treatment options for people seeking help to reduce their dependence on prescription medication, alcohol, and other drugs. Hope not Handcuffs.
We will learn what the program is all about and who are the volunteers who go out to help someone in crisis when they are needed. They are the angels of Hope Not Handcuffs.
I am joined with Annette Kahrs, Executive Director for Tri-County Community Partnership and Program Director Hope Not Handcuffs-New York.
And Wendy Brown, Deputy Commissioner of Health and Human Services.
We also speak to some of the angel volunteers for Hope not Handcuffs,
