In 2017, Governor Larry Hogan declared a state of emergency regarding heroin and opioid addiction in Maryland.  Most recently in 2019, Governor Hogan stated, “the fight against heroin and opioid overdoses has torn apart communities and families throughout our state and across the nation. Together, we can and we must do more in order to save the lives of thousands of Marylanders.”  The heroin and opioid crisis has also affected members of Caroline, Kent and Queen Annes counties.  In an October 21, 2019 Washington Post article, columnist Petula Dvorak stated, “Queen Anne’s County on Maryland’s Eastern Shore has one of the nastiest rates of opioid overdoses and deaths in the nation."
