As Prince George’s County’s sole provider of support services for individuals in various substance abuse and reentry programs, DPP plays a critical role in breaking the cycle of addiction. The challenges of navigating human and social services typically fall on recovering individuals at risk of relapse and/or re-incarceration. With DPP acting as their “system navigator,” they gain a strong support network to build the relationships and community required for a successful transition and continued progress. DPP case managers meet clients’ immediate needs for documentation, food, and toiletries before connecting them with housing, mental healthcare, and workforce development resources to promote their independence throughout the recovery process. Follow-up support and encouragement continue for six months. An attainable recovery becomes possible for DPP clients, ensuring they can live healthy and independent lives.
