VICTOR, N.Y. -- Deadly herion overdoses are a growing problem in our communty. The Monroe County Medical Examiner's Office reports a 40 percent increase in 2014 alone.

The 'Strong Home of Victor' program is just starting, but people are excited about its possibilities. It aims to throw out the usual 28-day treatment plan, and make it a faith-based year-long process.

According to the CDC, heroin overdose deaths have nearly quadrupled between 2002 and 2013. It's a figure that hits close to home for Jenny Collins.

"She had one relapse after 52 weeks of recovery," Collins said.

That relapse for Collins' daughter, Abby, was fatal.

"The drug was laced with fentanyl and she died," Collins said.

Since the death of her mother, Tayla Lynch is asking what she herself could have done differently.

"We've been looking back at what we could have done, if there were other options for her," Lynch said. "She looked into places like this and she couldn't afford it."

Debra Tvrdik is trying to answer that question for Lynch and other families. She hopes to turn the building on Strong Road into a safe place for women to win their fight against heroin.

"Last year they ran out of body bags before they ran out of people who died of Heroin," said Tvrdik, director of the Strong Home.

Tvrdik said treatment is unaffordable and also inaccessible for many.

"And it needs to be also including family," Tvrdik said.

She wants to change that by opening the Strong Home of Victor where women coping with heroin addiction will go through a 12-step program. But, there's a twist that will go along with conventional methods. Treatment will take them outdoors to kayak, camp, ski, even zip line. Most importantly, the women will be surrounded 24/7 as they deal with the ups and downs of overcoming addiction.

It’s a change in treatment Collins said could have saved her daughter.

"What happens when you're struggling at 7 a.m. and you're not at that outpatient program and you have no resources," Collins asked.

It will take about a year to get the house up and running. But, directors still need a special use permit approved by the town of Victor. Funding is also needed. For more information on how to help, the organization has set up a GoFundMe page.
