International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD) is a global event held annually on August 31st of each year. The event draws worldwide attention to the need to prevent and create awareness about drug overdose. 💜

Together, communities, families, people who use drugs, government officials, international organizations, businesses and policy makers come together in a shared effort to reduce the tragedy of overdose.

The goals of International Overdose Awareness Day are to raise awareness of overdose and reduce the stigma of a drug-related death; and to acknowledge the grief felt by families and friends remembering those who have died or been injured as a result of drug overdose.
