Erie County Department of Health’s Office of Harm Reduction and Erie County Overdose Prevention Task Force respectfully request your presence at our International Overdose Awareness Day event on Friday, August 30.
This event promotes awareness of the toll that the opioid epidemic has taken on our community. We recognize loved ones that we have lost to the ongoing opioid overdose epidemic and highlight people who have survived overdose. As of the end of June, our community has lost about 185 residents to suspected or confirmed opioid poisoning. We are working to reverse that trend, prevent overdoses and deaths, and connect people with treatment and support. This event is sponsored by Erie County and is coordinated by the Erie County Overdose Prevention Task Force.
