  • Why is the record Important?
  • • By empowering the public through Naloxone training, we can stem the tragic tide of opioid overdoses sweeping the nation.

Each life saved creates a ripple effect, inspiring more training and distribution until we turn the tide on this epidemic. Together, we can build communities of empowered responders, saving lives one training at a time.
