You Are Not Alone

Join us for International Overdose Awareness Day as we come together to honor, remember, and bring awareness to the lives lost due to the opioid crisis.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Candlelight Vigil at Sunset

Throughout the evening, we will gather to remember those we have lost by Planting Crosses in Their Memory, hear messages of hope, and connect with local organizations offering support and resources for individuals, families, and loved ones affected by substance use.

This free community event is open to everyone. Whether you have experienced loss, are supporting someone on their recovery journey, work in the field, or simply want to stand in solidarity with others, your presence matters.

Community Organizations & Support Services:

We invite local agencies and organizations to host a free resource table to share information about the programs and services available throughout Windsor and Essex County.

Unable to attend? You can still participate by donating brochures or resource materials for our 100 community resource bags, which will be distributed to attendees.

Together, we remember those we have lost.
Together, we support those who are grieving.
Together, we bring hope and help reduce the stigma surrounding substance use.
