Just Call  Naloxone Training Programs

  • Just Call encourages people to call for help during overdose emergencies and to ask for help with substance use disorder (SUD). Gaston Together gives presentation and shares information about who to call for help & why you should just call.

  • Gaston County residents and organizations can learn how to identify overdoses and administer Naloxone. Gaston Together will distribute Naloxone and encourage organizations to make it easily accessible to staff and community members.
