Since inception, we have focused on community and families by working preventatively with new parents and their infants, counselling families who are struggling with their role, and working on behalf o

f the Ministry of Children and Family Development with young people in our community who are the most marginalized, street entrenched and disenfranchised.

Overdose does not discriminate.

It can affect people of every age, background, profession and neighbourhood.

Behind every statistic is someone's child, parent, sibling, friend or colleague.

Reducing stigma starts with the words we choose and the compassion we show. When people feel safe asking for help, lives can be saved.

Let's replace judgment with understanding and create communities where people know they belong and where support is within reach.

August is Overdose Awareness Month.

For 25 years, communities around the world have come together to remember those we've lost, support those who grieve, and work toward a future where overdose deaths are prevented.

This year's theme, "25 Years On. Still Needed." is both a reflection and a call to action. While we have made progress, overdose continues to affect individuals, families and communities across Canada.

Throughout August, we'll be sharing information, stories and resources to help reduce stigma, encourage compassion, and remind everyone that recovery is possible and every life matters.

Together, we can help build a future where this day is no longer needed.
