Stigma doesn't save live. Compassion does.

Too often, people affected by drug use face judgement instead of support.
This can stop them from reaching out, asking for help, or feeling seen.

#IOAD2025 #EndOverdose #SupportNotStigma #SeeThePerson #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessWeek

This week, we remember those we’ve lost, support those who grieve, and stand with everyone affected by overdose.

💜 Behind every statistic is a person, a family, a community.
Now more than ever, we need compassion, understanding, and action.
