In previous blog posts, I have written on the importance of working together to save lives from opioid overdoses. When multiple nonprofits, agencies and communities collaborate on solutions, we are able to apply more knowledge and resources to fight illicit fentanyl.

For the past decade, HarborPath has been serving unmet needs among vulnerable Americans through affordable and accessible healthcare. Whenever we expand our areas of service, our team researches the latest trends, reports and health data. Here’s a statistic we recently came across that should cause all of us concern.
Earlier this week, I was asked to speak at a training and research event for the National Association of Attorney Generals. With staff members representing half of the country’s Attorney General offices, the conference focused on the alarming spread of Fentanyl and rising numbers of overdoses throughout the United States.
Last week, a bipartisan coalition of attorney generals addressed the security dangers that fentanyl is having on our country, going so far as urging the White House to label illicit fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.
International Overdose Awareness Day, observed annually on Aug. 31, was created to raise awareness of the global health crisis caused by drug overdoses, reduce stigma, remember those who have died and spur discussion about overdose prevention and drug policy.
HarborPath selects FFF Enterprises as the exclusive distributor for Naloxone to help states combat the opioid epidemic. HarborPath cites FFF’s nationwide delivery network through its specialty pharmacy company Nufactor and its cloud-based inventory management system as key for deploying Naloxone where the need is greatest.
