“Having Narcan available in our community can truly mean the difference between life and death,” said Kristin Glover, PharmD, BCACP. “Overdoses can happen anywhere and to anyone, and I believe everyone should know how to recognize an overdose and feel confident using Narcan if they ever need to. By providing Narcan for free and taking the time to teach people how to use it, we are giving our community a simple but powerful tool that can save a life. We also want people to know that there should be no shame or stigma in being prepared to help someone when they need it most.”
