Healthcare workers, social workers, peer recovery coaches
Anyone who wants to be ready to help

Why it matters: Opioid overdose can happen to anyone — and you can be the one who makes the difference. Whether you’re concerned for someone you know or just want to be prepared, this training empowers you with tools to act confidently and compassionately.
