Episode Details

Lacey City Council declared August 31st as Overdose Awareness Day to honor those lost and celebrate recovery, marking a critical step in Thurston County’s fight against substance use disorder. With overdoses fueled by diverse substances and treated as a public health emergency, Lacey joins the One Washington initiative to direct state funds to local opioid response programs. Thanks to settlement funds and community contracts, treatment centers and peer support have expanded significantly over the past five to six years. A community event on September 2nd at Franklin Street Harm Reduction will offer resources, creative expression, and remembrance. For help, call the Washington Recovery Help Line 24/7 at 1-866-789-1511.
