Overdose Awareness Day Vigil

Join us to honor loved ones, share stories, and stand together for hope, healing, and a future free from overdose.
About this Event

In August, our community will come together at vigils across Dakota County to honor lives lost, lift up stories of hope, and strengthen our response to the opioid epidemic.

These gatherings are a space to:

• Share stories of loss, hope, and healing
• Honor loved ones
• Build community support and connection
• Connect with resources in Dakota County
• Stand together in hope and action

This August 31, we do more than remember, we come together. We gather to honor lives lost, to stand with those grieving, and to celebrate the strength of recovery. No one should face this journey alone. Each memory shared, each voice lifted, and each act of solidarity moves us closer to a future where overdose no longer steals our loved ones.
