What is ?
Project FREEDOM is a statewide initiative working to reduce opioid overdose deaths across Alabama through training, education, and access to lifesaving medication.
The program equips first responders, including EMS, municipal departments, and volunteer fire personnel, with:
✅ In-person training on recognizing and responding to opioid overdoses
✅ Free access to naloxone, the medication that can reverse an overdose
✅ Education on Alabama’s Good Samaritan Law, which protects people who call for help in an overdose situation
✅ Connections to treatment and recovery resources for overdose survivors
By expanding awareness and getting naloxone into the hands of those most likely to encounter an overdose emergency, Project FREEDOM is helping save lives and strengthen Alabama’s communities.
