Overdose Awareness Day

Overdose touches people and communities in many ways.

We join the community in “Recognizing those people who go unseen,” honor the people whose lives have been altered by overdose. They are the family and friends grieving the loss of a loved one; workers in healthcare and support services extending strength and compassion; or spontaneous first responders who selflessly assume the role of lifesaver.

This year on August 31, let’s acknowledge and support the people in our communities who go unrecognized by raising awareness of the hidden impacts of overdose.

Time to remember. Time to act.
Overdose Awareness: Recognizing those who go unseen.
