Save the Date for Save A Life Day 2024

September 26, 2024

The South Carolina Harm Reduction Coalitionn(SCHRC) is organizing our state’s participation in  Save a Life Day  on Thursday, September, 26th  2024 and we’d love to have you join us.

What is Save a Life Day?

Save A Life Day (aka Free Naloxone Day) is an annual event that brings communities together to distribute life-saving naloxone, while building up an unstoppable grassroots movement to end the overdose crisis. Last year, all 13 Appalachian states joined together and distributed over 45,000 naloxone doses in a single day. Over 300 sites participated! For the 2023 event, SC had five counties with multiple distribution points in several.

Want to join us on Sept. 26th? It’s not too early! Sign up here.

All groups will be supported with monthly planning calls hosted by SOAR WV, with design and outreach templates, a mega map anyone can use to find your events, and a fun box of swag and anti-stigma materials to give out. SCHRC is available to provide technical assistance and share best practices for overdose education and naloxone distribution.
