MSP Angel Program

About the MSP Angel Program

The MSP Angel Program allows individuals struggling with a drug use to walk into participating Michigan State Police posts during regular business hours to ask for assistance. People coming in for help will not be arrested for drug use or possession. An “Angel” volunteer in the program helps with access treatment, transportation, and other resources for recovery.

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)

 NAS is a type of withdrawal  that can occur in newborns exposed to certain substances, including opioids, during pregnancy. If you are pregnant and struggling with opioid use, talk to your doctor right away. Addiction to opioids is a disease, and you and your baby both deserve medical care for a healthier start to your child's life. If you're scared to talk to your doctor, try practicing with a counselor or trusted loved one. Check out the resources below for more information.  

The UP has one of the highest rates of NAS in Michigan -- but together we can change that!

Casey's Story

About Casey

 Casey became addicted to prescription opioids after a hockey injury around age 12. By the time he was 16, he was seeking opioids on the streets. In March of 2017, while in his late 20s, Casey was found unresponsive from an opioid overdose. A dose of Narcan from an EMT named Anette saved Casey's life. 

Recovery is Possible

Now, Casey is in recovery from addiction, a father, and the owner of Sum Moore Snow Removal in the Copper Country.  He is also a Peer Recovery Coach with the Western UP Health Department.


Casey's message to others who are struggling with addiction is: Don't be afraid or embarrassed to reach out for help.
