Today is International Overdose Awareness Day.
Behind every statistic is a person, a family, a colleague, or a community forever changed by substance use disorder and overdose.
As healthcare professionals, we see firsthand how complex these challenges can be. Awareness matters, but so do compassion, evidence-based treatment, and reducing the stigma that often prevents people from seeking help.
Together, we can help create a healthcare system where people feel safe asking for help and supported throughout their recovery journey.
