Co***ne is now the leading cause of overdose deaths in Cuyahoga County, and it doesn't always take a bad batch or a large amount to cause harm. Stress, illness, lack of sleep or mixing substances can all increase the risk of an overdose.

Developed by the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office in collaboration with the ADAMHS Board and other local public health partners, this campaign and its website help people recognize the warning signs of an overdose so they can respond quickly and potentially save a life.

If you or someone you know uses co***ne, or if you simply want to be prepared to help a friend or family member, signsofOD.org has free resources on recognizing an overdose and responding fast.

This week, our CEO Jason Joyce was featured in two Crain's Cleveland Business articles. In the first, he penned an insightful guest column discussing the many adults who are raising their own children while also caring for aging parents.

Known as the "sandwich generation," this group can often carry the weight of pressure and emotional strain. As a licensed clinical supervisor, Jason shared his expertise on ways individuals can seek help from family and work before they're overwhelmed. Read Jason's op-ed here: https://bit.ly/4bRBr2Z

Visit the comments section below to read the second article featuring his thoughts on the struggle to find local resources that can support this group.

Caregivers are often the safety net, but safety nets need support too. Employers can help through supportive leave policies and workplace cultures. Even a small amount of flexibility can make the difference
