Rooted In Hope Podcast

Highland County Health Department participates in an ODH funded program called Project Dawn that helps us supply FREE Narcan to our community! If you've recently acquired Narcan from HCHD and it has an expiration date of June 2026, we have GOOD NEWS...we just received a new shipment! If your Narcan is expired or about to expire, stop in and see us for another box!

If you or someone you know is at risk for a drug overdose, Narcan is available for FREE at the Highland County Health Department.
