Overdose Prevention

Preventing Tragedy, Providing Hope

Our flagship program began in 2015 and operates today with two simple philosophies: no one should have to die of an overdose, and everyone deserves the chance for recovery.

We provide naloxone (the opioid overdose reversal medication), training and education, organizational policies, and fentanyl test strips to the public at no cost.

Naloxone Training

The Steve Rummler HOPE Network has a designated on-staff trainer who provides naloxone training for groups and individuals both in person and virtually. We also offer a condensed online training you can do on your own from home! Find out how to get trained and where to get naloxone.

Xylazine Test Strips

Xylazine (tranq, tranq dope, etc) is a powerful sedative used in veterinary medicine which is increasingly showing up in street drugs. Xylazine test strips can detect the presence of xylazine in a small, diluted drug sample. We provide test kits to the public at no cost.
