Today is International Overdose Awareness Day - a time to remember the lives lost to overdose and acknowledge the grief felt by families and friends who have lost a loved one.

To mark this important day, 57 flags will be displayed outside the Justice Center and Government Services Center, each representing one of the 57 lives lost to accidental overdose in Chester County in 2025.

Join us this evening at 6:30 PM for a "Night of Light" at the Chester County Historic Courthouse to honor and remember those whose lives have been lost to substance use disorders, support those who carry their memory, and shine a light of hope for those moving towards long-term recovery.

Photo of the Week
🐿️Here's something you don't see every day! A squirrel with a white tail is typically caused by a rare genetic trait or a loss of pigment in the tail fur - like this one photographed in Honey Brook Township by Terry Devine.
