Good morning all,

Happy Friday-eve! I wanted to take a moment to share about local events taking place in observance of Overdose Awareness Day (8/31).

Many of you have been experienced the loss of a loved one due to overdose. A dear friend of my family lost his life after an overdose of Fentanyl on June 30, 2021; he was only 30 years old. Overdose Awareness Day is an opportunity to remember those we've lost, and support persons who struggle with substance use concerns, and their families and loved ones. Please consider participating in an Overdose Awareness Day event or supporting a realted cause, and accessing Narcan training.

For more information about training in the administration of Narcan, and how to access this critical tool in reversing overdose, check out Naloxone For All: https://www.naloxoneforall.org/

Good Afternoon All,
I wanted to reach out and share the information for a new peer support group, open to anyone and everyone working towards healthy behavior change associated with problematic behaviors or substance use. I'm excited to share that one of our amazing students at UCCS is the facilitator! They've opened the group so that students interested in observing the group process are welcome to attend.
The group, titled "180 Recovery" is held Fridays at 7 pm via Zoom. Please see the attached flier for a link to the Zoom room. Feel free to share this flier with anyone who might be interested.
