Category: General

Our partners at Substance Use Prevention Education (SUPE) have created a detailed guide to bridge the gap between law enforcement and the community regarding how to respond to an overdose emergency.  The guide clarifies exactly what legal protections exist, and we hope this encourages our community to:

  • Call for help without hesitation
  • Receive clear, factual answers to common questions
  • Reduce preventable overdose deaths

We hope you will utilize this guide, and all of the great resources and information SUPE has to offer!
