The Bedford Opioid Abatement Grant program has established a "brown bag" program to educate parents and families about substance abuse. Each bag includes a dose of Narcan mist (with directions), for treating narcotics overdose; a Bedford County Resource Guide, a Drug Rescue brochure, a Bedford County Health Department brochure, a LifeSource Family Solutions (mental health counseling) pamphlet, and a 9-8-8 suicide and crisis lifeline business card.
FREE brown bags are available at Community Clinic Shelbyville Bedford County, Inc, 200 Dover Street, Suite 202, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Fredia Lusk, Bedford Opioid administrator, and Shanna Gaither, assistant administrator, provided this resource from the Narcan donation from AmeriCares and Direct Relief.
For more information or to request brown bags, email bedford-opioid@shelbyvilleclinic.org.
