It will be a time to talk about the drug crisis in Kankakee County, begin to change the stigma, and remember those who have been victims of the crisis. It is the hope that friends and family members are able to join us to reflect and tell their stories. There will be recovery and mental health organizations available for resources. Narcan training and Narcan kits will be given out along with fentanyl test strips.

Overdose affects everyone. From grieving families to spontaneous first responders, the impacts of overdose are far-reaching and fall indiscriminately.

Sign up to the International Overdose Awareness Day newsletter and become part of the global movement to end overdose.
