In this episode of the Just Say Something Podcast, host Phil Clark reflects on two years of measurable impact from The Power Collective, a collaborative initiative funded by the South Carolina Opioid Recovery Fund.
Together with partners including Unity Health on Main, Rise Prevention, NAMI Greenville, Mental Health America, Compass of Carolina, and others, the Power Collective has reached more than 41,000 individuals through prevention, education, harm reduction, and recovery support.
Phil highlights key milestones such as the Take Back Youth Summit, where 94% of students reported better understanding of substance risks and 100% identified a caring adult in their lives. He also shares powerful statistics on mental health services, Safe Rx vial distribution, and the collective’s $62 million statewide economic impact through prevention efforts.
Looking ahead, the Power Collective enters Year Three with $1.4 million in new funding and a renewed mission to strengthen communities, expand mental health access, and continue proving that prevention works.
