Why should you get trained?
In 2012, Lake county endured 80+ fatal opioid overdoses while Cook county saw an astonishing 533. Since that time, rates have dipped slightly telling us that overdose prevention education works. Aside from learning how to save a life from opioid overdose, trainers will leave with the knowledge necessary to train other community members, clients and their families to use naloxone, the opiate overdose antidote.

What will you learn?

• How our brains are wired for addiction

• How to recognize signs of overdose
• How to administer Naloxone

What will you leave with?
