About SOS Berks

SOS Berks is Berks County’s Opioid Coalition. This coalition was created by Berks County’s key decision makers  seeking to develop proactive and effective responses to the opioid epidemic on a local level. It is comprised of individuals who are invested in providing the community with the support, resources, and education to raise awareness, stop stigma, and end opioid overdose deaths in Berks County. SOS Berks members include representatives from criminal justice, healthcare, human services, education, local businesses, drug and alcohol treatment, and other concerned citizens.
