A Statewide Effort to Empower Recovery

Backed by opioid settlement funding, this app connects individuals with real-time peer support, recovery resources, and mental health tools — all moderated by certified professionals.
988, A bridge To Meeting Urgent Needs in Our Rural Communities
Many rural residents face barriers to accessing behavioral health care. ORCNM recognized this gap and launched a seven-county treatment navigation model that connects individuals to local resources, emotional support, and follow-up care — all through the trusted 988 hotline.

Opioid overdose continues to be an urgent public health challenge in the United States and in New Mexico. In 2019, 74% of all overdose deaths involve opioids in New Mexico. Preventable opioid overdose deaths increased 457% since 1999 in the US, which lead public health officials to declare a nationwide opioid overdose epidemic.
The purpose of the New Mexico Opioid Hub is to address the tremendous opioid crisis by expanding access to treatment, reducing unmet treatment needs, and reducing opioid overdose-related deaths through the provision of prevention, treatment, and recovery services for Opioid Use Disorders (OUDs) in New Mexico.
