Project Lazarus: A Lifeline in the Overdose Crisis

But at The End Of The Day withdrawal is better than dead
Drug overdose deaths in the US have skyrocketed since 1990, with prescription painkillers being the main culprit. But there's a beacon of hope in North Carolina called Project Lazarus. This initiative is taking a unique approach to tackling the overdose epidemic by distributing naloxone and providing overdose prevention kits. In this episode, Kenneth Anderson chats with Fred Wells Brason II and Nabarun Dasgupta from Project Lazarus.
They discuss how their efforts are turning the tide against overdose deaths through community education and law enforcement collaboration. If you're curious about how innovative strategies can make a real difference, this conversation is a must-listen.
