During its Aug. 25 meeting, the Wayne County Corrections Planning Board discussed the Opioid Remediation Grant and its planned use in the jail. Piper Davidson said the grant will provide inmate services and that the jail will "provide Narcan at the jail."
Piper Davidson also reported that Victoria Furin is now working full time in the Wayne County Jail providing reentry services, which board members linked to coordinated substance-use interventions for people leaving custody. The board did not specify grant amounts or a distribution timeline during the session.
No formal vote or allocation was recorded; the conversation was presented as a program-update item under Goal 1 (Continuum of Service).
