Today is Overdose Awareness Day, and two local organizations are observing it by giving away medicine that could save someone’s life.
Narcan is a nasal spray that almost immediately reverses the effects of opioid poisoning.
Houghton/Keweenaw Communities That Care and the Western Upper Peninsula Health Department are providing free doses, along with drug-deactivation kits and additional resources to anyone who needs them.
Stop by the Western Upper Peninsula Health Department office in Hancock between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to get what you need.
