We are just days away from our Community Event! Join us Monday, August 31 at Zane’s Landing Park for this special gathering honoring International Overdose Awareness Day.

We’ll remember loved ones lost to overdose, support those impacted with community resources, and come together in a casual, kid-friendly, stigma-free space. Please share and tag someone who should be there.

September 26 is getting closer, but you get to choose how you want to meet the finish line. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Take on the Zanesville City Half Marathon or sign up for the 5K—two distances, one race day, and plenty of time to put some training miles behind you before you get there.

Whether 13.1 is the goal or 3.1 is more your speed, now is a great time to get your name on the starting list. 👟

Overdose Awareness Theme Week continues! We are bringing Naloxone Barney Boxes to our community! 💜

Barney Boxes provide FREE naloxone, helping reverse opioid overdoses, save lives, reduce stigma, and make this life-saving medication more accessible to everyone who may need it.
This is what community collaboration looks like — breaking barriers, increasing access, and making sure help is always within reach.

Barney Boxes are available at QUICKmed Urgent Care (left photo) Family Health Services of East Central Ohio Inc (photo two), Genesis HealthCare System Behavioral Health, (photo three), and the Zanesville-Muskingum County Health Department (right photo).
