Knowing the signs of an opioid overdose can help save a life.
Signs may include:
• The person cannot be woken up or is not moving.
• Breathing is very slow or has stopped.
• Choking, coughing, gurgling, or snoring sounds.
• Cold or clammy skin.
• Very small pupils.
• Changes in the color of the lips or nails.
• Dizziness or confusion.
If you think someone is having an opioid overdose:
• Call 911.
• Give naloxone if you have it.
• Stay with the person until help arrives.
Every person matters. Every life is worth saving.

Harm reduction is about improving health, increasing safety, supporting wellbeing, and saving lives.
By reducing risk and increasing access to support, harm reduction can benefit individuals, families, and entire communities.
It can help people stay safer, connect with healthcare and recovery resources, reduce overdose- related risks, and strengthen support for families. It also helps build healthier, safer communities where people have the information and resources they need.
Harm reduction saves lives.

The Logan/Mason ROSC is not hosting this event and we are just sharing this on behalf of our ROSC council members.

Hi friends! We are 45 days away from the 2026 Manito Popcorn Festival. Plans are coming along well and you will start to see events posted right here! Updates will also be appearing on our website at www.manitopopcornfestival.com.

Our volunteers have been working behind the scenes to bring some new ideas to the festival and we hope you're going to love what you see!

We pride ourselves on offering FREE or LOW-COST events to our attendees, but that also means we are looking for sponsors. We graciously accept donations from individuals and businesses.

If you would like to sponsor a specific event, please send us a message and we will pair you with the available event of your choice! You will be recognized on our page and website.

Thank you for continuing to support the Manito Popcorn Festival, where we are "Poppin' with Patriotism!" ❤️🍿🤍🍿💙🍿

Is Harm Reduction Recovery?
Yes.
Recovery is not the same for everyone, and there is no single path that works for every person. Harm reduction is a recognized recovery pathway that supports health, safety, wellbeing, and personal recovery goals.
Just as some people find recovery through treatment, mutual support groups, faith, medication, or other approaches, others identify harm reduction as part of their recovery journey.
Recovery is personal, and every positive step matters.

Does Harm Reduction Enable Substance Use?
This is one of the most common questions people ask about harm reduction.
The answer is no.
Harm reduction focuses on reducing risk, improving safety, and helping people stay alive and connected to support. Research shows that harm reduction strategies can reduce overdose deaths, prevent the spread of disease, and create more opportunities for people to access treatment, recovery, and other services.
