On International Overdose Awareness Day (August 31), we recognize the lasting impact overdose leaves on families and communities across Missouri and beyond.

For 25 years, this day has brought people together to raise awareness, reduce risk, share prevention methods, and support efforts that save lives. Together, we can build a future where fewer lives are lost and there are more opportunities for recovery. https://www.overdoseday.com/

First Call is proud to participate in the Missouri Prevention Coalition Network’s “Be Under Your Own Influence” campaign, sharing an important message with young people across Missouri: you don't have to follow the crowd to be yourself.

This campaign was created with youth voices at the center, encouraging young people to make choices that reflect who they are and where they want to go.

Because prevention starts with empowering young people to believe in themselves.

Be your own influence.
