You can help save lives. Your support will provide life-saving Narcan and suicide prevention training to those who need it most.

Colorado has one of the nation’s top ten suicide rates, according to the Center for Disease Control.

Colorado also saw an almost 70% increase in fatal fentanyl overdoses from 2020 to 2021, with more than 900 deaths total last year, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

With your help, we will:

• provide free suicide prevention education to community members regardless of ability to pay.
• create a network of vending machines and kiosks where people can get NARCAN at no cost.
