Narcan/Naloxone is a life-saving, opioid overdose
reversal drug. Unfortunately, accessing Naloxone can
be difficult in certain areas that are affected by the
opioid crisis, which leads to an increase in overdose
deaths. Rural counties are nearly three times more
likely to be low dispensing compared to urban
counties. Sierra Community Medical Foundation has a
standing order to distribute free Naloxone to members
of our community. You can also get Narcan at many
pharmacies without a prescription or covered by most
insurance. Visit our page to learn more about
treatment and Naloxone.

Early Childhood Education: Helping Children Develop to Their Full Potential and Lead Healthier Lives

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated their Health Impact in 5 Years web page about early childhood education. The initiative highlights community wide interventions that provide evidence on positive health impacts, the indicators that lead to better outcomes and results, and the cost effectiveness of the intervention.

My Child Care Plan is a new website that provides California’s families with the free information they need to make the best possible child care choices for their children. Now there is a better way to find child care in California www.mychildcareplan.org

Violence and its impact on children is a heartbreaking reality that impacts so many families in California each year. In 2016 alone for Sacramento County, 13 children died of homicide. Six were related to abuse and neglect, according to a recent report by the Child Abuse Prevention Center. “What we see in the data consistently over 25 years is that the most vulnerable children are those zero to five. And frankly, those in the first year of life are actually the most vulnerable and most likely to die of a child abuse and neglect homicide,” said Sheila Boxley, president and CEO of the Child Abuse Prevention Center (CAP Center)
