Naloxone Training

  • Waycross Family Justice Center 2201 Riverside Avenue Waycross, Georgia, 31501 United States (map)

Naloxone training is an educational session that teaches participants how to recognize the signs of an opioid overdose and how to safely administer naloxone — a life-saving medication that can reverse the effects of an overdose within minutes.

During this training, attendees will learn:

  • How to identify an opioid overdose

  • When and how to administer naloxone

  • What to do while waiting for emergency responders

  • How to help reduce stigma surrounding substance use disorder

  • How to connect individuals to local support resources

  • Emergency Response Protocols and Procedures

Why is this important?

Opioid overdoses can happen anywhere — in homes, workplaces, schools, and public spaces. Naloxone is safe, easy to use, and has saved countless lives across the country. Equipping community members with this knowledge empowers everyday people to act quickly and confidently in an emergency.

Why does our community need this?

Rural communities often face limited access to emergency services and treatment resources. By increasing awareness and training local residents, we strengthen our collective ability to respond, reduce preventable deaths, and support individuals and families impacted by substance use disorder.

This training is free and open to the public. Whether you are a parent, teacher, healthcare worker, faith leader, business owner, or simply someone who wants to be prepared — this information could help you save a life.
