Responding to an Overdose

The opioid overdose crisis claimed over 100,000 lives across the United States in 2021. It is time for us to act.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Carrying Narcan/Naloxone, knowing how to identify an overdose and how to respond is how we combat the overdose crisis on a community level.

It is up to us.

If you suspect overdose, it's time for Narcan/Naloxone, which binds to opioid receptors in the brain and can restore breathing and consciousness. It can save a life.
