Overdose Education and Naloxone Training
Online Overdose Prevention Training
This is a self-paced training that includes basic information on overdose prevention and includes training on how to administer naloxone. This training does not allow for those trained to train others or distribute CMHPSM naloxone to others.
Virtual/In-Person Training for Organizations
This training is for organizations who would like to have their staff trained about overdose prevention and naloxone administration. Train-the-Trainer course is available for organizations who are interested in further distributing naloxone to community members.
To schedule a Virtual/In-Person training for your organization, please email Rebecca DuBois (duboisr@cmhpsm.org) and Alyssa Tumolo (tumoloa@cmhpsm.org).
Naloxone Distribution

Naloxone (also known by brand name Narcan®) is a medicine that can rapidly reverse an opioid overdose. Naloxone can quickly restore normal breathing to a person if their breathing has slowed or stopped because of an opioid overdose. Naloxone has no effect on someone who does not have opioids in their system, and it is not a treatment
for opioid use disorder.
Naloxone is available to those in our community through the following resources:
Organizations can request naloxone free from the State’s online naloxone portal.
Naloxone for Individuals: Request Naloxone for Personal Use
Michigan Pharmacies Approved to Dispense Naloxone:
Naloxone Access for the Community
