Today marks the anniversary of the Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act.
The Act provides legal protection for people who experience or witness an overdose and call 9-1-1 for help.
Suspect an overdose? Administer naloxone if on hand & pick up the phone ASAP. You could save a life! ^jc

This was a tough day. Speaking with the individuals living in the park was confirmation that each of these individuals have a story that have led them here, and that a single solution isn’t the answer. Complex problems require a systems level approach. – at Sarnia, Ontario
Yesterday, Chief Davis and Deputy Chief Craddock joined members of the IMPACT Team at Rainbow Park. They spent time speaking with individuals living in the park to better understand the challenges facing this community. At today's Police Service Board meeting, they shared their experience.
They recognize Community Safety and Wellbeing is a shared responsibility and this complex issue will require a multi-sector collaborative solution.
