CHARIOT connects trained lay responders to individuals experiencing an overdose. The goal is to work in parallel with 911 to provide naloxone as quickly as possible, reduce response times and prevent fatal overdoses.
As a result of funding from the Division of Mental Health and Addiction/State of Indiana, Overdose Lifeline and the Dept of Correction will offer Naloxone as an option for each offender upon release.
Thank you to everyone for your support to make this important work possible. Together, we raised $5,500! This is enough money to provide over 120 lifesaving Naloxone kits.
Brittany Melissa “Sissy” York, 31, of Indianapolis passed away on October 14, 2020. She was born on March 25, 1989 to Kim York in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Voices for Non-Opioid Choices (“Voices”) featured Overdose Lifeline for their recent partnership with the State of Indiana to safely distribute naloxone to individuals and communities in need across the state.
Thank you for making INARMS a success! We heard from 29 different speakers covering topics ranging from how Community Health Workers support recovery and re-entry through to new and novel innovations in Jail treatment programs.
Overdose Lifeline is devoted to helping those in active substance use and/or in recovery and their loved ones to overcome setbacks on their journey. This is a place to share empowering stories with your community and support group. We would love to hear yours.
