Jacksonville, the largest city in Florida by land area, is home to a vibrant community—but beneath the surface, many families are struggling with addiction and mental health challenges. The city has seen a rise in opioid overdoses, alcohol misuse, and untreated mental illnesses, leaving many families feeling overwhelmed and desperate for solutions.

With its location along major transportation routes, Jacksonville has become a hub for substance trafficking, contributing to high rates of drug addiction. According to the Florida Department of Health, Duval County ranks among the highest in the state for opioid-related deaths. Additionally, Jacksonville has a significant shortage of mental health providers, meaning many individuals experiencing conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD are not receiving the care they need. Families often bear the brunt of these struggles, navigating crises with little support.

Key Mental Health & Addiction Issues in Jacksonville:

• Opioid Crisis: Duval County has one of the highest opioid overdose rates in Florida, with fentanyl being a leading cause of death.
• Alcohol & Methamphetamine Use: Jacksonville has seen an increase in alcohol-related hospitalizations and a rise in methamphetamine use, particularly in economically distressed neighborhoods.
• Mental Health Treatment Barriers: Many residents face challenges accessing mental health care due to provider shortages and financial constraints, leading to self-medication through substance use.
