El Paso County’s overdose crisis is spiraling out of control, with a 16% jump in deaths last year—178 accidental overdoses—and even worse numbers this year, with 124 deaths already reported in the first half. While the nation sees declines, Colorado stands out as one of the few states where overdoses are surging, driven by deadly combinations of meth, fentanyl, and a resurgent cocaine problem. The crisis isn’t limited to overdoses either: drugs were found in 75% of suicides last year, which rose 23%, including a tragic doubling of child suicides. Overdoses now claim 69% of all accidental deaths in the county, overshadowing even drops in homicides and cold-weather fatalities. This complex, escalating emergency demands urgent, coordinated action.
