Launched in August 2013, Rx for Change is a hospital-based violence intervention program at Regional One Health designed to promote positive alternatives to violence in our community. The goal of the program is to reduce retaliation, criminal involvement and re-injury among youth injured by violence, as well as connect those youth and their families with opportunities and wrap-around social services.
The program was highlighted on a recent WREG-TV, Channel 3, newscast. Learn more about the program and how it is changing lives in this community here.
