Event Details

Learn how to easily, safely, and legally save the life of someone who is experiencing an opioid overdose. Experts from Live4Lali will help you understand more about the opioid epidemic and show you how to use the life-saving drug naloxone (Narcan®).

Naloxone is an easy-to-use, lifesaving antidote to overdose from opioids including heroin, fentanyl, prescription pain medications like Vicodin and oxycodone, and medically assisted treatment options like methadone and buprenorphine. Used in hospitals for decades, the medication has no addiction potential, costs very little for a lifesaving dose, and can be administered with basic training. 

Live4Lali works to reduce stigma and prevent substance use disorder among individuals, families, and communities, and minimize the overall health, legal and social harms associated with substance use.
