Opioid Overdose Doesn’t Have to be Fatal – You Can Help Save a Life!

The Santa Cruz Overdose Prevention & Education program (SCOPE) at Janus provides overdose prevention kits and education to individuals and community organizations. These life-saving kits contain two doses of Naloxone, which can reverse opioid overdoses when administered promptly. Syringes and instructions are included in a small sharps container for safe disposal after use. Anyone who uses opioids or lives with or near anyone who uses opioids (including IV heroin) is urged to obtain a kit. A $20.00 donation is requested but a kit will not be denied to anyone due to inability to pay.   Contact us at (831) 462-1060 to learn how to get a SCOPE kit or to set up a SCOPE training for your organization.
