Each session is one-hour long and provides vital information on how to recognize and respond to an overdose emergency. Registered participants will also receive one box of lifesaving Narcan and/or a QR code to access Narcan at a local pharmacy, ensuring they are prepared to act when needed.

These training sessions are open to the public by registration and are designed to create a safer and more informed community equipped to respond to an emergency situation.
