Urge the MA Legislature to Pass Substance Use Legislation with OPCs! The state is facing an ongoing opioid crisis, with 6 people dying every day from overdose. In 2023 alone, we lost 2,105 lives to overdoses, and 2024 is already showing alarming numbers with 504 confirmed and estimated deaths.

Help make OPCs a reality in MA!
