Sponsored in partnership with the Buffalo Police Department, the Erie County Department of Health, along with Horizon Health Services and Evergreen Health Services, are offering FREE training in the use of naloxone (Narcan).


Opioid Overdose Recognition and Use of Naloxone for Reversal

Individuals will leave the training able to:

  • recognize the signs and symptoms of an opioid overdose

  • properly administer naloxone

  • know the necessary follow-up steps

Dependent upon naloxone availability, participants who successfully complete the training will receive a kit containing two doses of naloxone at no charge. Participants must be 16 years or older. Thank you to the West Side Youth Development Coalition for their support of this training.

Please note: When there are fewer than 20 pre-registrants 72 hours before a scheduled class, the class will be cancelled. Registrants will be notified by email of the cancellation.

If access to naloxone is deemed urgent, please contact Cheryll Moore at 716-858-7695 or cheryll.moore@erie.gov
