OPIATE OVERDOSE PREVENTION TRAINING

Last summer, Du Page County was averaging one overdose death per day. In Cook County, the "Heroin Hub", the overdose rates aren't any better. 

What can we do? We can stop burying our loverones and start saving lives by being trained in overdose prevention!

Join WAKE THE NATION to be trained and certified to carry and administer Naloxone, the opiate overdose antidote.

Training is free.
