Naloxone Distribution Programs

Naloxone Distribution Programs are initiatives designed to provide naloxone, a medication that rapidly reverses opioid overdoses, to individuals at risk of overdose and their communities. These programs aim to reduce overdose deaths by ensuring that more people have access to naloxone and know how to use it. Participants often receive training on recognizing overdose signs and administering naloxone, which can be lifesaving. By making this medication widely available, these programs help create a safety network, empowering individuals to act quickly in emergency situations.
