Are you prepared for emergencies? Join us for our Emergency Preparedness series, where we'll cover everything you need to know to stay safe and help others in emergency situations. Our next program will focus on naloxone - a life-saving medication that can reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.

The Naloxone Training Program at the library is a crucial initiative aimed at educating and empowering individuals to effectively respond to opioid overdoses. The program provides an in-depth understanding of opioid addiction, overdose prevention, and the safe administration of naloxone, a medication used to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.

Through this program, participants learn how to identify signs of an overdose, how to safely administer naloxone, and what steps to take in the event of an overdose. The training is designed to be accessible to individuals with varying levels of experience and knowledge, and participants are encouraged to ask questions and engage in discussions throughout the program.

In addition to the practical training, the program also covers important topics related to the opioid epidemic, such as the root causes of addiction and the impact of stigma on individuals seeking treatment. By providing a comprehensive approach to addressing the opioid crisis, the Naloxone Training Program at the library is making a meaningful impact in the lives of community members and saving lives.
