  • 3/28 TODAY : Overdose Emergencies Scenarios

    Join us TODAY, Friday, March 28th from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the Student Union for Act Fast, Save a Life! — an interactive educational experience hosted by Substance Use Prevention Peer Educators with Student Health and Wellness (SHaW).

    This event is designed to help you recognize and respond to potential substance-related emergencies, including situations involving cannabis, alcohol, or opioids. Through real-life inspired scenarios and engaging activities, you'll learn practical, life-saving skills in a safe and supportive space.

    Whether or not you choose to use substances, having the knowledge to support a friend or community member in a moment of need can make a  powerful difference.

    All participants will receive free giveaways — including stress balls, stickers, and other wellness items.

    Come as you are, learn what to do, and help build a safer, more caring campus community.
