Overdose Awareness Day
Join us on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at Heritage Park for Overdose Awareness Day — a free community event to remember those we've lost, honor survivors, and raise awareness about the impact of overdose in our region.
Now in its fifth year, this gathering brings together individuals, families, and community partners to break down stigma, share vital resources, and promote hope and healing. We believe that recovery is possible — and that every life deserves compassion, dignity, and a second chance.
