“International Opioid Overdose Awareness Day”

Tomorrow is International Opioid Overdose Awareness Day, an annual campaign to end overdose and remember those who have died…without any stigma. 

And it also looks to acknowledge the grief of the family and friends left behind.

According to the Centre for Disease Control, an estimated number of people in the USA who had died from an overdose in the 12-months ending in September 2020 was 90,237.

-Akilah Sutphin,  Action Toward Independence

“Back to School Fair”

This Wednesday, Action Toward Independence will be holding a Back 2 School Fair from 4 pm to 6 pm on East Broadway in Monticello. 

Action Toward Independence promotes the independence, inclusion, participation, and personal choice of individuals with disabilities.

Radio Catskill’s Patricio Robayo spoke to Akilah Sutphin, a Family Peer Advocate with Action Toward Independence, about the organization and the Back 2 School Fair.

All this and more on The Local Edition, Community News for the Catskills, and Northeast Pennsylvania.
