International Overdose Awareness Day:

Vigil - August 31, 2011

A New PATH (Parents for Addiction Treatment & Healing)

invites you to join us at a vigil on Aug. 31, 2011

as we remember & honor individuals who have lost their lives to overdose, and to the failed war on drugs.

When: August 31, 2011 7pm

Where: St. Paul’s Cathedral Courtyard

                     2728 6^th Ave. San Diego, CA 92103

Why: Accidental fatal overdose is the leading cause of injury-related death in the US, and the leading cause of death among people who use drugs around the world.

We encourage sensible solutions such as increased access to overdose reversal medication naloxone & implementing Good Samaritan 911 policies.

Be a part of Moms United to End the War on Drugs National Campaign! Mothers and others are leading the charge to stop the violence, mass incarceration and overdose deaths that are the result of current punitive and discriminatory drug policies. We advocate for therapeutic drug policies that reduce the harms of drugs and current drug laws.
