Alexandria’s Overdose Awareness Night

August 21, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Free

Join us again this year, in bringing awareness to people in our community & honoring those lost to overdose and/ or Fentanyl poisoning.

We will meet near the Big Ole statue to share memories of those lost and learn about resources to respond in case of an overdose.

Talk to a couple of local Substance Use Disorder and professionals, learn how to use intramuscular AND nasal Narcan/ Naloxone, get free Narcan, & free Fentanyl Test Strips. This year we are also being joined by KT Humble Hearts Grief Support Services!

Once it gets dark we will break out the candles for a vigil in honor of loved ones lost.
Feel free to send us a photo of a loved one again if you would like us to print it out for our memorial board, or you can write their name & a message when you arrive.
