Happy Labor Day!✨
Today we celebrate the contributions and achievements of American workers. The first U.S. Labor Day was celebrated on September 5, 1882 in New York City, organized by the Central Labor Union. By 1894, it became a federal holiday honoring the labor movement’s fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and reasonable hours.

As we enjoy this day of rest, let’s remember the generations of workers who paved the way for the rights we have today—and keep working toward fairness for all. 💪🏽

August 31 – International Overdose Awareness Day 💜
Today, we honor the lives lost to overdose, stand with the families and friends left behind, and renew our commitment to ending overdose and related harms.

Overdose is one of the world’s most urgent public health crises. Together, we can raise awareness, promote evidence-based prevention, and work toward a future free from overdose.
