Today is a reminder that while we’ve made progress, the opioid and overdose crisis continues to affect communities across Pennsylvania.

We can all take action to help stop overdose—today and every day.

🟣 Tell a friend where to get Narcan, also known as naloxone.

🟣 Explain how test strips detect deadly substances like fentanyl and xylazine.

🟣 Encourage people to treat everyone with compassion.

WE ARE proud to share that we will be a participating location for this event🙂

Whether you say "yinz" or "youse," cheer for the Steelers or the Eagles, saving lives is something every Pennsylvanian can get behind.

Last year, Pennsylvania distributed 10,700+ doses of naloxone on Save a Life Day, earning #3 in the nation.

Let's make a run for #1. On September 24, pick up free naloxone at a participating Save a Life Day location. Every dose distributed means another Pennsylvanian is prepared to respond to an overdose emergency.

Find a participating location—and learn how to get free naloxone year-round through Pennsylvania's Overdose Prevention Program—at the link in the comments.
