To prevent drug overdoses from increasing in your community, the National Safety Council Prescription Drug Community Action Kit offers local organizations guides to:

  • Rid your community of unused prescription drugs
  • Develop programs for saving lives when an overdose happens
  • Build partnerships and coalitions with community leaders, law enforcement, families and victims, state and federal legislators, physicians, education experts and human services providers
  • Create community events and programs that draw attention to prescription drug misuse and overdose
  • Work with the medical community to reduce the over-prescribing of prescription pain medications
