According to the CDC, in 2021, over 50,000 people in the United States died of a drug overdose, and 65% of these had at least one potential opportunity for intervention.

Tragic overdoses can be prevented, and distributing the resources and knowledge for reversing overdoses is the mission of Georgia Overdose Prevention.

On Nov. 10, a benefit concert for the organization will feature a long-awaited reunion performance of Atlanta rock band “The Judies.” Georgia Overdose Prevention’s work hits incredibly close to home for the lead singer of The Judies, songwriter Warren Ullom.
