International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD) is a day to come together and remember those who have died and acknowledge the grief of family and friends left behind.
Held on August 31 every year, IOAD is the world’s largest annual campaign to end overdose. The theme for 2024 is “Together we can” highlighting the power of community when we all stand together. IOAD is also a day to recognize and remind us that addiction is a health condition. People use drugs for many reasons—reasons some of us may never understand.
