"Tackle Overdose Now"

COMMUNITY IMPACT SUMMIT

JUNE 25-26

KNOXVILLE, TN

You’re invited to unite with us for the “Tackle Overdose Now” Community Impact Summit events on June 25-26, in Knoxville, TN. These events will bring together leaders, advocates, organizations, and community members committed to saving lives and creating lasting impact. Together, we’re working to reduce stigma and increase low-barrier access to “FREE” life-saving overdose reversal medications, while also dramatically heightening public awareness of its benefits.

Two Days, One United Purpose

Building on the success of our Tennessee “Tackle Overdose Now” campaign in Davidson and Fentress Counties, we are excited to partner with Metro Drug Coalition to expand our overdose prevention campaign and public education model to Knoxville – an area facing some of the highest rates of drug use in the nation. As a result of our initiatives, more individuals and families will gain access to life-saving overdose reversal medications, along with greater awareness of the difference these resources can make.

We can’t do this alone. The most powerful efforts are built on the strength of community, and with that in mind, we also invite you to be a part of our fundraising dinner on June 25th at the Pavillion at Hunter Valley Farm. Join us as we unite with Knoxville to kick-off our Community Impact Summit initiative and raise needed funds to ensure our life-saving work continues to reach communities in need. Gather with friends, meet NFL Alumni, enjoy delicious food, and lively music – all in a beautiful setting for a good cause.
