Bringing Overdose Awareness To Our Community Partners

Join us during national Overdose Awareness Week to raise awareness of the individual, family and community impact on rising overdose deaths in our community, our state and across our country. Be empowered with knowledge by joining our ONE VOICE event.

​

​Together we can impact the stigma of substance use, improve access to treatment, and save lives through harm reduction and other lifesaving policy changes.

It's stigma and bias that are shameful.

Hegira Health, Inc., a top behavioral healthcare provider in Wayne County, announces a new corporate structure starting Oct. 1, 2021.

Hegira Health CEO Ed Forry communicated last week to Hegira Health staff, “It is with great pleasure and confidence that I announce the promotion of current Executive Director Carol Zuniga to the Chief Executive Officer position on October 1, 2021. The board’s goal is to provide a seamless transition of the CEO's role and authority to Carol Zuniga, who will be fully vested with the responsibilities and authority as prescribed by our board to operate, manage, and oversee all aspects of the corporation.” He added, “As President, I shall continue to provide consultation and leadership in expanding and enhancing Hegira Health’s scope of business, increasing the footprint of Hegira Health, and creating growth and development. I believe this transfer of CEO responsibility and authority to Carol Zuniga will continue to create a strong and viable environment for the future advancement and growth of Hegira Health.
