Nooksack Genesis II Chemical Dependency Program

Genesis II is a State Certified CD Agency that provides confidential, comprehensive services for substance abuse & chemical dependency and outpatient treatment. All our counselors are certified alcohol/substance professionals. They will help guide clients in the healing process and help develop new coping skills to prepare for life’s stressors without having to resort back to active addiction and self-destructive behaviors.

Narcan (naloxone) nasal spray is available at Genesis II. Narcan is a medicine that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose. If you see an overdose, call 911 immediately. Use of Narcan is not a substitute for emergency medical care. Even if the person wakes up they may still relapse. Learn more about the life-saving benefits of Narcan kits. The Good Samaritan Law states that if you get medical help for an overdose or alcohol poisoning, you and the victim cannot be charged for drug use, possession, or underage drinking.
