Counseling Services of Lancaster is rolling out a new campaign aimed at getting the public involved in the statewide crusade against the opioid epidemic. The campaign, called Just Plain Killers, is a project of the S.C. Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services (DAODAS) under which Counseling Services of Lancaster operates as a local substance-abuse commission. The goal, both statewide and locally, is to raise and deepen public awareness of opioid use and abuse in the state while reducing the stigma placed on addicts.
