Monroe County received new funding to secure 24/7 operations at Delphi Rise, the county’s only open-access clinic dedicated to substance use disorder support. On Wednesday, local officials announced the funding commitment, which will guarantee uninterrupted access for the thousands who rely on the clinic’s services for the next five years.
Clinic Services
Delphi Rise provides immediate, same-day substance use evaluations, peer-led engagement, and comprehensive outpatient treatment services, including detoxification and ongoing recovery programs. The clinic had faced potential closure in the spring due to funding challenges.
Jen Catht, president and CEO of Delphi Rise, stated: “Not only did they step up when we were in crisis and not sure if we had to close our doors in the spring, but they’ve made a commitment to us that will allow us to find a path towards long term stability. We cannot go away. We cannot leave our community in this moment, not when our interventions are starting to work and we’re seeing real lives being saved.”
