We will gather together and hold space for the memorial of loved ones lost, process ongoing grief, read names of people who have died from overdose, and continue the conversation around overdose awareness. Please join us. If you were like the name of a loved one read, or their picture displayed during the event, visit this link: tinyurl.com/SPWIOAD23. In addition, Harm Reduction Supplies, to include Naloxone/Narcan, will be available during the event. Staff will be onsite to educate members of the community on effective overdose prevention, recognition, and response. Free HIV/HCV testing will also be available.

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.
