The HERC plan to hold trainings on administration of Naloxone. Along with learning how to administer Naloxone, individuals will learn how to recognize the signs/symptoms of overdose and recognize who may be at risk of opioid overdosing. Once trainings are made available a separate machform will be created for students/staff/faculty to sign up. For those interested in being put on a list to be notified, please fill out the same form to request Naloxone.
