Would you know what to do if you encountered someone experiencing a toxic drug poisoning?Join the Downtown Residents Association and Yates Street Community Garden for a free workshop that could help you save a life. We will talk about some of the misconceptions related to the toxic overdose crisis and stigma surrounding the issue. Our instructor will then go over the steps involved in administering Naloxone and participants will have a chance to practice.
If you have already taken part in a Naloxone training but are not feeling confident that you would remember what to do if you came upon someone needing help, this is a great opportunity for a refresher!
