The Downtown Reno Partnership ambassadors were trained how to use Narcan by The Life Change Center’s MORE team two weeks ago. The team, headed by Lisa Lee and Jennifer Cassady, uses Narcan during their outreach work. Now, all the ambassadors carry two doses of Narcan with them as they make their rounds through downtown Reno.
As part of the STR/SOR Project funded by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the State of Nevada, CASAT staffers have worked hard to design and disseminate these Naloxone kits and information surrounding them. You can find more information about Narcan and the State’s Response to the Opioid Epidemic at the Nevada State Opioid Response website.
