Drug and alcohol addiction and overdose is a problem that has snowballed in recent years. Drug overdose deaths increased sharply in Mississippi, rising by 49% from 2019 to 2020. This increase placed them at the 5th highest increase in overdose deaths during Covid. There are many reasons that addiction and overdose rates have risen in Mississippi, including an increase in fentanyl-laced and synthetic drugs, misunderstandings about the cost of rehab, a stigma surrounding addiction, and social isolation. 

Mississippi experienced 605 overdose deaths from 2020 to 2021, which is a 51.6% increase over the same time period a year earlier.

Alarming statistics like this are just the tip of the iceberg, showing the desperate need for effective drug and alcohol rehab programs in Mississippi. Bradford is committed to helping treat Mississippians with substance use disorders by giving them access to the care they need today. We continuously innovate our programming and services to provide the most effective care and support to communities across Mississippi.
