Save lives.
Naloxone HCL (Narcan) is a medication that reverses the effects of an opioid overdose, a result of consuming or using one or more opioid-related drugs.
In order for those struggling with substance abuse to receive help, they need to stay alive. The Monongalia County QRT provides naloxone distribution and training to any individual, groups or organization that are interested. If interested in naloxone or naloxone training, reach out to Joe Klass, Assistant QRT Coordinator, at joseph.l.klass@wv.gov or 304-225-0264. Naloxone is also available at Hazel’s House of Hope on Scott Avenue from 7 p.m.-7 a.m. Thursdays through Saturdays.
Free Naloxone Day is September 14

The Monongalia County Quick Response Team along with other volunteers will set up at several locations around Monongalia County to hand out free naloxone and fentanyl test strips, administer naloxone training, and provide vaccines at select locations.
