Kentucky’s Overdose Decline and Hope | Lexington News

from Lexington News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Overdose Awareness Day calls us to honor lives lost and support those still fighting — Kentucky’s flags fly at half-staff and the Governor’s Mansion glows purple in solidarity. While overdose deaths have dropped 22% from last year and nearly 50% since 2021, the battle isn’t won. Governor Beshear urges all Kentuckians to join the effort, access recovery resources through the HELP Call Center or FindHelpNowKy.org, and remember: no one battles addiction alone.
