On International Overdose Awareness Day, we mark 25 years of remembrance, awareness, and action. Today, we honor the lives lost to overdose, support families and friends carrying grief, & stand with people in recovery. Overdose is preventable. Learn the signs of overdose, carry naloxone if you can, share trusted resources, and help reduce stigma in our community. Together, we remember. Together, we act. Together, we can help save lives.
