How to Get a FREE Naloxone (Narcan) Kit
* Only available to Ohio residents

Project DAWN (Deaths Avoided With Naloxone) is a community-wide naloxone (also known as narcan) distribution program. Naloxone is a medication that can be used to quickly reverse an overdose caused by an opioid drug. Free narcan kits are available upon request thanks to a Federally funded grant through the Ohio Department of Health.
The project educates opioid users, their family members or their friends on how to recognize the signs and symptoms of a drug overdose. Call emergency medical services, perform rescue breathing, and administer naloxone/narcan nasally. For more information, call (330) 343-5555 x 1780 or email us at narcan@tchdnow.org |

Naloxone (Narcan) kits are available for in person pick-up at the Tuscarawas County Health Department.
