DCCCA is providing free naloxone (Narcan) nasal spray and training to community organizations and any Kansas resident. DCCCA is funded for this project by the Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) through the State Opioid Response (SOR) grant initiative from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). 
Naloxone is an opioid overdose reversal drug that counteracts the life-threatening effects of an opioid overdose. Naloxone is available to any resident or organization in Kansas upon request.
Training Objectives:
Participants will:
- Learn about the impact of the opioid crisis nationally and in Kansas;
- Develop their ability to prevent, recognize, and respond to an opioid overdose;
- Explore resources associated with opioids in Kansas; and
- Learn how to administer Naloxone if an opioid overdose is suspected.
