Excellent event happening in Fargo tomorrow! Naloxone saves lives πŸŽ‰

πŸ“£ News release: and Clay County Public Health (CCPH) will participate in Save a Life Day on Thursday, September 25, 2025. The nationwide event is dedicated to providing the public with free naloxone, a life-saving medication that reverses opioid overdoses.

Save a Life Day began in 2021 as a small two-county pilot project in West Virginia and has since grown into a national effort, with participation from all 50 states. Along with distributing free naloxone during the observance, FCPH and CCPH are using the day to highlight that naloxone is available in the community year-round.

Local year-round distribution sites include:

β€’ Fargo Cass Public Health: Main office -1240 25th Street South, Fargo
β€’ Clay County Public Health: Family Service Center - 715 11th Street North, Moorhead
β€’ Community partners:
o Cass County Jail – 450 34th Street South, Fargo
o Harm Reduction Center – 510 5th Street North, Fargo
o Parachigo – 14 8th Street South, Fargo
o Churches United – 1901 1st Avenue North, Moorhead
o West Fargo Fire Department – 1201 10th Avenue East, West Fargo

Naloxone quickly restores normal breathing during an opioid overdose, preventing death. The medication distributed by FCPH and CCPH is a nasal spray that requires no medical training, and it is safe, legal, and easy for anyone to use. β€œWe want every resident in Cass and Clay Counties to know that naloxone is accessible, easy to use, and can save a life. We are committed to making sure individuals, families, and organizations have access year-round,” said Robyn Litke Sall, Prevention Coordinator for Fargo Cass Public Health.

We had the opportunity to participate in the first Justice Well conference hosted by The Ridge Treatment and Reentry Center today. The speakers were so great and it always feels good to be in community with likeminded groups advocating for resources and justice for the individuals we serve.

As we near the end of we want to spend a few minutes reminding everyone that if you are concerned about your own or someone else's alcohol consumption, it's worth understanding what alcohol withdrawal is. It is one of the only substances that can be fatal to withdraw from without medical attention, but can usually be safely managed with a medical team! For individuals with less frequent or less volume alcohol use may not notice these symptoms but an individual that consumes a lot and often, may find that after a drinking episode they do not feel well. The CIWA protocol is one way that professionals monitor symptoms to see if and what interventions might be needed.
