Rather than a single massive parade, localized support and awareness efforts were led by local health departments and community alliances:

Free Naloxone (Narcan) Distribution: The Northeast Missouri Drug-Free Communities (NEMO DFC), which operates inside the Adair County Health Department in Kirksville, utilized the annual observance to highlight the constant availability of free Narcan kits. Residents are continually encouraged to stop by to pick up a kit or receive basic training.
