Monday, August 31, is International Overdose Awareness Day. In recognition of this important day of remembrance and action, the Missoula Drug Safety Coalition is offering FREE Overdose Prevention & Naloxone Trainings at the Scheels Training Center in Southgate Mall and at the Missoula Public Library.
In this hands-on training, you'll learn how to:
- Recognize the signs of an opioid overdose
- Respond confidently in an emergency
- Administer naloxone, a medication that can reverse an opioid overdose and save a life
- Free naloxone kits will be provided to participants.
Whether you're a parent, friend, neighbor, service provider, or simply someone who wants to be prepared, everyone is welcome. Together, we can reduce stigma, increase awareness, and help make Missoula a safer, more compassionate community.
