Substance use-related overdoses and deaths among youth are on the rise. Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can be administered in an overdose situation, and everyone, including youth, should be aware of how to use it in case of an emergency. This naloxone infographic was designed using a visually appealing format to help youth easily understand the steps for administering it. It was created to support our drug education strategy called Drug Education Centred on Youth Decision Empowerment (DECYDE), which provides evidence-based, trauma-informed, harm reduction, substance use education and resources for youth, educators, and guardians. Our goal is to empower youth to make safe and informed choices regarding their substance use health.
