Webinar Naloxone in Public Housing: Success in St. Louis

Date: Apr 4 2024 | 2 - 3:30pm (EST)

Register

Recording of Webinar

Description

In 2022, over a 36-hour period, St. Louis experienced the deadliest mass drug overdose event in the city's history, leading to 11 overdoses and 7 deaths. These overdoses occurred at Parkview Apartments, public housing run by the St. Louis Housing Authority. They were the result of accidental fentanyl consumption, a synthetic drug that hit Missouri’s drug supply in 2016 and has left a devastating imprint. This webinar will discuss the responsive cross-sector partnership that arose from this tragic event, which is focused on increasing outreach efforts to public housing facilities in St. Louis and lowering barriers for people to access life-saving naloxone and other health resources. The webinar will feature community health workers' and residents’ perspectives on the program’s benefits. There will be time for Q&A after the panel presentation.
