Naloxone Virtual Overdose Prevention Training

How to Save Lives with Naloxone Virtual Overdose Prevention Training: Drug Crisis in our Backyard, a community-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, will be offering a free virtual Zoom event on April 15, 2021 at 6:30PM with limited availability for participation. Naloxone is a prescription medicine, administered by injection or intranasal, that reverses an overdose by blocking heroin or other opioids in the nervous system for 30 to 90 minutes. The event will be through St. Vincent’s Hospital Westchester (website here) and in collaboration with CoveCare Center (website here).
