Naloxone Kits and Training

Naloxone Saves Lives: Make a stand against opioid overdose and carry Narcan.

Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can rapidly reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. It works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain, quickly restoring normal breathing to a person whose breathing has slowed or stopped due to overdosing with heroin or prescription opioid pain medications.

Certified Peer Recovery Specialists from Community in Connection will be on-hand to give away free Narcan kits, Fentanyl test strips, and other valuable life-saving items. They will provide instructions on how to administer Narcan and answer any questions you may have.
