Pacific Grove Unified School District

Dear PGUSD Staff and Families,

 

We are pleased to invite you to participate in our continued NARCAN distribution through PGUSD. As part of our ongoing efforts to promote health and safety within our community, we are continuing to make NARCAN available to help combat opioid overdoses. If you would like to participate, you may pick up a dose of NARCAN at any PGUSD school site; simply contact your child’s front office. 

 

As previous district distributions were successful within the district over the past two years, we are excited to extend this ongoing opportunity to our Pacific Grove staff and community. NARCAN, also known as naloxone, is a medication used to rapidly reverse opioid overdose. It can save lives when administered promptly and correctly.

Prior to distribution, participants are encouraged to complete a short training video that is available on our district safety web page under our drug prevention page. We strongly encourage all PGUSD staff and community members to take advantage of this opportunity to receive NARCAN training and a dose of the medication. Your participation could help save a life.

 

If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact Barbara Martinez, Principal Pacific Grove Adult Education at 831-646-6580.

Thank you for your commitment to the health and safety of our community.

 

Sincerely, 

 

Dr. Linda Adamson, PGUSD Superintendent of Schools
