International Overdose Awareness Day

International Overdose Awareness day is a global event held each year to raise awareness of overdose and reduce the stigma of a substance-related death. This day also acknowledges the grief felt by families and friends remembering those who have died or had a permanent injury as a result of drug overdose.

This is a 'safe virtual space' for Philipstown families to remember a loved one lost to overdose. Please feel free to share the names of your loved ones lost to overdose and a message of rememberance as you wish. You are not alone.
