A good first step

You don't have to do this alone

Whether you're ready to stop, cut back, or just want to be safer — there's help with no judgment. You can talk to someone right now about what you're going through, or get connected to treatment when you're ready. If you or someone near you has overdosed, call 911 immediately — you will NOT be charged for drug possession at the scene.

Free naloxone kits are available across Nova Scotia — no health card or prescription needed. Asking for help is not a weakness.
