Drug overdoses kill hundreds of Delawareans every year. When a person struggling with addiction experiences an overdose, every second counts. Having naloxone on hand can save a life during an opioid overdose. To prevent overdose deaths and get individuals struggling with addiction to treatment and other supports the Delaware Department of Correction has partnered with Delaware Health and Social Services to provide naloxone in the community to probationers, their families and loved ones, and others. Recipients receive two doses after completing a short 5-minute training on when and how to properly use naloxone.
