Community members can drop in to receive free overdose reversal training from Buncombe County Health and Human Services with the goal of empowering the community to potentially save a life.
Everyone is welcome to stop by anytime between 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. on the first Friday of every month at 40 Coxe Avenue in Downtown Asheville. Bring your parking ticket from the Sears Alley Parking Deck for validation.
During the drop-in, participants hear from educators about signs of an opioid overdose, how to use naloxone, who is at risk of using opioids and why, harm reduction principles, and more. Participants can also ask questions, and at the end of the training, receive a free Narcan kit while supplies last.
