Wesley's Reach, Inc.
Reaching Out. Honoring Memory.
Changing Lives.
Our nonprofit is dedicated to eliminating addiction and overdose across our community. Through evidence‑based strategies, we confront addiction at its roots, expand access to meaningful support, and create sustainable pathways to recovery. Our pilot program marks the beginning of this long‑term effort, turning commitment into action that strengthens families and communities.
OUR MISSION
In Honor of Wesley
Wesley’s story is the catalyst behind our nonprofit’s formation, guiding a mission aimed at eliminating addiction and overdose across our community. He didn’t know those whose lives he has yet to save, but as we work in his memory, we know countless families will be spared the pain of losing a child — and that conviction is what keeps us moving forward.
Wesley’s story is the essence of everything we do. Losing him changed us forever, and in that grief, a purpose emerged. Born from love, pain, and hope, our nonprofit carries his memory forward through our pilot program — turning loss into life‑saving action.
Though Wesley never met the individuals who will benefit from the work he inspired us to do, his legacy drives the work we do each day.
WHY IT MATTERS
In 2025, DEA seized more than 47 million fentanyl-laced counterfeit pills and nearly 10,000 pounds of fentanyl powder. The 2025 seizures are equivalent to more than 369 million lethal doses of fentanyl.
The 2026 fentanyl seizures represent over 126 million deadly doses.
369 Million+
In 2022, 81,806 opioid-involved overdose deaths were recorded with only 25% of those who needed treatment receiving medication for opioid use disorder.
25%
Opioid addiction impacts millions of families and communities nationally.
Effective, accessible, treatment saves lives and makes recovery possible.

WHAT IS SUBLOCADE?
Once-Monthly Treatment Option
Sublocade is a long acting injection used to treat opioid use disorder. It is administered once a month by a healthcare provider and delivers a steady dose of medication to help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
30 Days
One injection provides medicated support for an entire month.
No daily decisions required.
Reduces Cravings
Helps decrease withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
Supports Recovery
Builds a strong foundation for long-term recovery until patients can eventually discontinue Sublocade without experiencing significant withdrawal.
Monthly Injection
Four shots is the average number of injections needed before tapering off,
WHAT WE DO
1. Outreach and Education
We connect with individuals already seeking treatment through MAT and Suboxone clinics, sharing information about Sublocade and the opportunities available through Wesley's Reach.
2. Application and Selection
Applicants are reviewed through our pilot program to identify participants who are ready to engage in treatment and demonstrate a strong potential for success. This process helps us measure outcomes and refine our approach for future growth.
3. Treatment Incentive
Selected participants receive financial assistance to help obtain their first Sublocade injection. As a once-monthly medication for opioid use disorder, Sublocade can reduce cravings and remove the daily cycle of opioid use decisions for up to 30 days.
4. 30 Days of Support
Recovery doesn't happen alone. During the month following treatment, participants receive recovery counseling and financial coaching designed to help them build stability, develop healthy routines, and create a foundation for long-term success.
5. Recovery Reinforcement
Participants who successfully complete their first 30 days of treatment and support may be eligible for an additional 30 days of assistance. This extended support includes continued recovery counseling, financial coaching, and encouragement to remain engaged in treatment.
