Manage episode 522299758 series 3477288
The source describes an initiative led by Conscience Conduit and Livegy that utilizes 3D printing technology to create low-cost, easily deployable Narcan (naloxone) dispensers aimed at combating the opioid crisis. These lightweight, wall-mounted units provide decentralized access to the overdose reversal medication, allowing them to be placed widely in public spaces for significantly less cost than traditional vending machines. Beyond physical distribution, the project emphasizes education and awareness, incorporating QR codes linking to training and mental health resources with each dose of Narcan. Data collected through these educational resources suggest the program is successfully promoting preparedness and resource seeking among users, further supporting long-term community impact.
