Meet staff from Turning Point Center of Addison County, Middlebury’s local peer-based recovery services center, and members of PEAR, Middlebury College’s trained peer health educator group Peers Educating for Affirming Relationships. Through this Narcan training, participants will understand the context of the bio-psycho-social elements of opioids, overdose reversals, and trends in substance misuse. Participants will also learn when and how to use Narcan to help someone they think may be experiencing an opiate related overdose, and PEAR members will share other strategies for supporting healthy relationships across our community. All participants will receive doses of Narcan and a resource guide for how to support a friend who may be struggling.
