The Prevention Coalition of Monmouth County’s Opioid Task Force is looking to bring Opioid awareness, education, and resources to one community at a time. Recently we’ve partnered with Long Branch HEARS to make this happen! (For more information please visit our page)

Our team has created a resource toolkit for each business, which includes posters on the Good Samaritan Law, and a bar scan code to find locations to access Narcan. Each business will also receive information on a pre-recorded Narcan training to educate their staff and community. We’re also providing different businesses/sectors with additional resources such as, but not limited to, RX lockboxes, Deterra bags, educational brochures, parent toolkits, and more.
