Earlier this month, a resident reached out to me to see if we could have a flag raised for International Overdose Awareness Day (8/31). While we do not have a flag policy yet, I felt it was important to post this to reflect on the lives lost to opioids and offer help to those who are battling addiction. You are definitely not alone in this fight.
