In partnership with the State of South Dakota, Emily's Hope has established the Post-Overdose Response Team in Minnehaha and Lincoln Counties. In response to the escalating opioid epidemic, this program is an effort to provide holistic, evidence-based care and support to those who survive an overdose. A post-overdose response team (PORT) is an overdose follow-up program that allows agencies to visit a person who experienced an overdose within 48 hours of the incident. PORTs provide support, education, and access to evidence-based treatment, such as medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) and other life-saving resources.

An addiction wellness nonprofit that provides professional, compassionate peer coaching to anyone impacted by alcohol or other drugs, including loved ones.

Peer coaching is a recovery support system where coaches draw on their lived experiences to help others on their paths to wellness. A peer coach is a wellness partner who provides knowledge, support, skills and accountability, depending on each person's individual needs. Coaches assist with all areas of a person's life, not just the use of alcohol or other drugs.

Sobriety is not required, and members are supported in whatever wellness goals are meaningful to them.
