Naloxone Info Session: Helping LA County Providers Prevent Overdose

May 30, 2023

Presented by Elizabeth Mackey, LMSW; Chelsea Simms, LCSW & Danielle Farmer, MSEd, LCSW

This is a bi-monthly info session on Naloxone (Narcan), an opiate overdose reversal medication that can be used by providers and laypersons to intervene on opiate overdose. Each session will cover what Naloxone is, how it works, general opiate information, how to administer, where to access training and supply, as well as addressing misinformation and overdose prevention strategies from a harm reduction approach. These sessions are intended for field-based mental health providers working in Los Angeles County, particularly FSP.
