Today is International Overdose Awareness Day. 💜

For 25 years, International Overdose Awareness Day has brought people together to remember those we've lost and to take action to save lives.

Overdose continues to affect every community. Yet it can be prevented. We know how to reduce risk and keep people safe. By speaking openly, learning from one another, and treating each other with care and respect, we build a world where fewer lives are lost.

08/31/2026

On International Overdose Awareness Day, we remember those whose lives have been lost to overdose, honour the families and communities who continue to grieve, and stand in solidarity with everyone affected by substance use.

By learning the signs of an overdose, increasing access to life-saving tools such as naloxone, supporting harm reduction initiatives and challenging stigma, we can help save lives and connect people to the care and supports they need.

Everyone deserves compassion, dignity and access to culturally safe, trauma-informed care and support.
