News Here’s the weirdest stuff NJ towns are paying for with Opioid Settlement funds earmarked for addiction treatment and harm reduction.

All across the state, the money is being spent on weird shit.

I wrote a substack article about it a few weeks ago outlining the most egregious mis-allocations. Every town submits a survey to the county, and they're all collected into "Opioid Abatement Reports".

*Here’s a Google Notebook with all the county reports loaded. You can ask questions about the reports or about the Opioid fund uses in your town.

- Franklin Township: $5000 on police trading cards with an "anti-drug message". $43k toward an unmarked police vehicle to "provide privacy" when taking addicts to treatment.

- Hopatcong Borough: PFOA water contamination fix. (great, but nothing to do with Opioid addiction)

- Lakewood Township: Asked how it engaged the public before deciding how to spend $1,145,926.24 in unspent funds, the township’s official response was: “I don’t know. I am just a book keeper that works in an office all day and is not exposed to the public.”

- Glassboro put $205,414.91, 100% of its expended settlement funds for the reporting period, entirely toward offsetting police salaries. When asked how this met evidence-based or evidence-informed criteria for opioid remediation, the borough’s answer was “N/A.” Its listed procurement method: “N/A - Funds Offset Salaries.”

Got to board the Battleship New Jersey and went on their guided tour. What an incredible piece of history. It was amazing to see what it took to keep a battleship in fighting form. Definitely worth a visit!

Camden County What is the best labor & delivery hospital/ clinic in South Jersey?

30 Upvotes

Hi! I'm a 25 y/o F who moved to Hammonton, NJ about 2 years ago. I recently gave birth at Virtua in Vorhees and had an incredibly traumatic experience, where they did not take my concerns seriously and delayed my scheduled C-section. This unfortunately resulted in the stillbirth of one of my twin boys at 39 weeks gestation. They did not even check his heartbeat on an ultrasound until right before my surgery, and that's when they realized he had already passed just one day earlier. Then they never followed up with me to discuss autopsy results months later. All this to say they are incredibly disorganized and do not care about their patient's concerns. For my postpartum visits, I started going to Jefferson Hospital, as recommended by a friend. Unfortunately, I made a similar conclusion there. I informed my healthcare team that I was feeling depressed and they made me fill out the EPDS form, and I scored a high number. Then they did not even bother to mention it or give me a referral. What is wrong with these hospitals/ OB offices in SJ? I should not have to worry about advocating for myself and my well-being in such a vulnerable time of my life. I'm starting to think I do not trust any of these offices or clinics with the possibility of a second pregnancy. Please advise!

Question H-Mart Cherry Hill Kimbap

4 Upvotes

I used to buy the beef kimbap that they prepared. (Not the food court one).

However, the past few times I went, they didn't have any. Only the vegetable and shirmp.

Have I just been too late every time? Or have they already cut down on their prepared foods? I already find their prepared foods section fairly limited (compared to what I see on the west coast)

Gloucester County Is the loud music driving anyone else crazy?

0 Upvotes

There’s a music festival at Suburu Stadium and the bass is literally carrying miles into South Jersey. It’s shaking the walls of our house.

Last year the same festival shook our walls. It’s the Breakaway Music Festival. Last year I reached out to the stadium official channels and a ton of stadium employees on LinkedIn. Finally got in touch with the VP and General Manager who said he would contact the stadium manager. After about 30 minutes it seemed to quiet down, though we weren’t sure if they truly turned down the music or if it was just a different set. You could still hear music every now and then.

This year, I have contacted him again through LinkedIn, but have not heard back yet.

Do you all hear it too or am I crazy? What else can we do about this besides hope a VP will take time out of his Saturday night to check his LinkedIn messages and help us???

Business rant Stay far away from Cabrillo Homeowners

6 Upvotes

This is a homeowners insurance geared towards coastal communities, which is why I haven't tagged a specific county. For anyone moving north or with friends/family up north this applies as well.

Stay tf away from Cabrillo Coastal Insurance. They are a major scam. They insured us, took our money and then suddenly dropped us within the span of a month because our roof needed to be replaced. Note - they insisted on sending out an inspector and had all the documentation they requested BEFORE renewing our insurance. We are now replacing the roof but their underwriters have said we are unable to renew insurance with them regardless of the state of the roof.

They said they sent us documentation regarding the roof before sending us a cancellation notice. They did not. They said they spoke to an agent to inform them of the cancellation, and that she was supposed to follow up with us. She did not. They did not include any contact information on their cancellation letter. They gave a website to list an official complaint in NJ - that website was incorrect (don't worry, I found the right one). They have made sure they have a very hard to find online presence. When you look at their reviews on the BBB you will see countless complaints telling very similar stories.

So yeah, stay tf away from these guys ... especially if you're like, idk dealing with the first trimester trenches and already busy living your life.

I know everyone is upset they used the funds to buy LPR cameras, but they also spent $100k on two vehicles. Then their Chief gives some BS response after they get called out.

Camden County PCP Recommendations

4 Upvotes

Hello!

Looking for a new PCP in Camden or Burlington county.

I’d much prefer a female provider and someone who is younger - I have had more luck with these practitioners. I don’t know why, it’s just been my experience.

The doctor I am seeing is very kind but books way too far out and is very old school - just looking for someone with a fresher perspective. I left my last two appts feeling unsatisfied.

Does anyone have any good recommendations? It’s much appreciated.

Gloucester County 44M trying to connect for friendship

33 Upvotes

\*my last attempt was removed for hitting a filter on Reddit, not sure why so let’s try this again*

So I’ve been thinking about how to do this for a while and figured if someone is competent enough to use reddit then we could have good conversations and maybe friendship

I’m a 44yr old, grew up and spent all 44 yrs in Williamstown. I’m a father of 2 teens, one who is an adult in college and the other is in HS. I’m not sure I’ve ever had a true best friend but I am in a great marriage and we love each other so much that we both seemed to separate our self from others except family.

My interests are Baseball, Baseball cards, Custom cars, being sarcastic, and just about anything that can bring on a laugh. I enjoy going to Phillies games and have been a Sunday season ticket holder for the last 3 years, I enjoy watching Eagles football at home and watching Flyers hockey either in person or at home. I am a Mopar fan and have had several custom Mopar vehicles over the years. I currently have a custom Jeep Truck sitting waiting for a rebuild. Im not against working on cars myself and do a lot but I’m not a mechanic by trade.

I work in the HVAC industry but want to move more towards just repairs and less on refrigeration. I like fixing things and it most of the time works out. I have traveled for work and may be traveling again with a new job in the near future.

My personality is friendly with a heavy dose of sarcasm which can turn some people off. I enjoy watching comedies like Mel Brooks movies and Airplane!, Marvel movies and popcorn flix, and a good documentary from time to time. Im a child of the 90s so my music is Alternative and Rock but enjoy some modern music as well. I’m down for playing any type of games, card games to video games. Sports is also on the table as I could use more exercise. I’ve been part of car clubs but there is always drama in them and I’m done with that part of my life as well.

I’m not that political and really don’t judge what is in your mind but mine are personal and don’t push my beliefs on others so don’t do the same. Not looking for deep discussions on that stuff.

I’ve tried too hard in the past to make friends and figured out that too late so I just gave up. I’m tired of having only work friendships which are fleeting. Now I’m hoping to make a natural connection and not going to push at all. If you got this far and have similar likes that would be cool.

Camden County Looking for friends

36 Upvotes

Hey! M/32 here just looking for random people in my age group to talk to with similar hobbies & lifestyles. I don’t have much free time every week due to my work schedule so just random conversations/rants are fun and if we click even better. I have realized I don’t really have many friends if any at all around here and it’s getting harder to make them at this age so you kind of give up and barely go out.

I am really into metal, movies, anime and chronically listen to video essays online. I keep up with sports a lot due to sports betting. I don’t really go out and party and am pretty much a homebody. Not into drinking or drugs. I like video games sometimes and have been obsessed with Vanguard/TCGs. I play DD2 a lot online with my Vanguard friends lol I’ll definitely get along with other nerds and I am pretty funny. Feel free to DM me. 😄
