One Reason Overdose Deaths Are Dropping

"Mexican drug cartels are mixing weaker batches of illicit fentanyl, a likely reason behind the nearly 15 percent drop in overdose deaths in the last year, according to DEA Administrator Anne Milgram."

"Why it matters: Government officials and drug policy experts have speculated about the drivers behind the recent drop in fatal overdoses after years of steady increases."

CCPH has experienced transformative growth in the past 5 years. And for that, we owe a debt of gratitude to our many partners and supporters across the county. I am excited and confident that the future will provide new opportunities to serve you, and the communities where you live, play, and work. It is in that spirit that we decided to launch our first end-of-year giving campaign in over a decade. Our primary goal is to increase unrestricted funds for our operations and infrastructure.

As I connect with our many partners and supporters, I share with them that CCPH was built for the virtual space. Our nimble and agile operations allow us to respond to a myriad of needs – from a pandemic, managing a consultancy network, and facilitating community coalitions.

It's very simple – while our growth has resulted in increased program funding, our availability of unrestricted dollars presents a challenge to our growth. As a non-profit, unrestricted funds allow us the ability and discretion to extend our work into new areas not covered by grants.

Our Giving Campaign will kick off tomorrow, Tuesday, December 3rd with and continue through the December 31st. Over a 4-week period you will hear from us about our work, along with the invitation to support us.

In the spirit of partnership,
Al Richmond
Executive Director

As summer draws to a close, we're taking time to reflect on our busy calendar of events, the opportunities we've had to connect and collaborate with partners, and the insights we've gained. Read about them here: https://ccphealth.org/summer-at-ccph-3/ Our partnerships are invaluable. The opportunities to connect, learn, and advance health equity and social justice will continue to be central to our programs. All of Us Research, University of Pittsburgh Clinical and Translational Science Institute, Partners for Advancing Health Equity

As we continue to build upon our partnerships this year, we reflect on how far we've come. 2023 was a year of expansion for CCPH. - We navigated new partnership dynamics. - We added new team members. - We continued to promote health equity and social justice through interactive, culturally responsive, and collaborative spaces for convenings with in-person, hybrid, and remote participation. Our goal is to build and share knowledge. Through iterative processes and practices, CCPH continues to grow and evolve alongside our partners and the changing cultural shifts of our political climate. Each partnership throughout this document will provide a bird's-eye view of their 2023 convenings.
