Featured Campaigns

Overdose Awareness

Every overdose death is preventable, every life is valuable, and every member of our community has the power to make a difference.

Throughout August, Hazel Pittman Center is proud to recognize Overdose Awareness Month by providing education, resources, and opportunities to learn how to recognize an overdose, respond in an emergency, reduce stigma, and support recovery. Through community webinars, educational materials, outreach events, and our International Overdose Awareness Day event on August 31, we are working together to increase awareness, inspire hope, and save lives.

Whether you are a parent, family member, educator, healthcare professional, first responder, or concerned community member, this campaign is designed to equip you with the knowledge and confidence to act when it matters most. Learning the signs of an overdose, understanding how to respond, and supporting those affected by substance use can help strengthen our community and create pathways to recovery.

We are overdose aware. Are you?

Learn the signs. Save lives.

Prevent the Next First Use: Youth Challenge

The Prevent the Next First Use campaign is a community awareness initiative developed to encourage youth to make healthy, informed choices and delay or prevent first-time substance use. Through positive messaging, peer engagement, and educational outreach, the campaign promotes confidence, healthy decision-making, and supportive environments for young people. By partnering with schools, families, and community organizations, Hazel Pittman Center aims to empower youth voices, reduce risk factors associated with substance use, and strengthen community awareness around prevention and wellness.
