Great Ideas & Best Practices
Walker County, Alabama Sheriff's Office
Our Mercy Project serves as a beacon of hope in today's dark world. The project was designed to help struggling addicts fight to beat the stronghold of addiction.
We all know that there is a drug issue in today's society. Drugs have affected someone you know, whether it be in your family, a friend, or even yourself. Our project serves to break those habitual behaviors and dependency on illicit drugs, and get one back on his or her feet. This program is at no cost to the program participant or to Walker County taxpayers.
Our goal is to help those who can no longer afford themselves the opportunity of freedom from addiction. We help bridge those who've pushed away their family and friends to rebuild their lives in a new, positive direction.
We tailor-make a plan to help aide those in need. We look to mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of one's life to enhance their chances of beating the tug of drugs in one's life.
Providing employers with a toolkit of resources they can use — free of charge — to help them prepare, prevent, and respond to this crisis.
​
Helping employees break the bonds of addiction, get and stay healthy, keeps them creative, innovative and productive. And that makes Arkansas strong.
