Naloxone Saved Me, Now I’m Saving Others: Morgan’s Story

Around three dozen of her friends—that’s how many lives Morgan Mentele believes have been saved thanks to Emily’s Hope distributing free naloxone in the Sioux Falls, South Dakota area. In this powerful episode of Grieving Out Loud, Morgan courageously opens up about her journey: how she went from being a mom of two and Sunday School teacher to battling substance use disorder, how recovery finally became possible, and why she—and dozens of others—wouldn’t be here today without the life-saving impact of Emily’s Hope.

You can find out where the Emily’s Hope free naloxone boxes are located on the Emily’s Hope website, along with information on how to use naloxone.
