Narcan, or naloxone, is a crucial tool in the fight against opioid overdoses. This life-saving medication can rapidly reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, preventing fatalities and giving people a second chance. With opioid overdose rates continuing to rise, having access to Narcan and knowing how to use it can make all the difference in emergency situations.
At Empowered Recovery Center, we are committed to supporting our community by spreading awareness and providing vital resources to combat the opioid crisis. This week, we are hosting an overdose prevention and Narcan training event to equip individuals with the knowledge and tools to save lives. The event will be held on Wednesday, October 16, at 11 a.m. and will be led by the Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition.
During this event, participants will receive hands-on Narcan training, learn about overdose prevention, and receive free Hepatitis C testing. We’ll also provide overdose prevention kits and education on preventing and treating STDs. This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone who wants to make a positive impact on their community and learn more about saving lives in the face of the opioid epidemic.

ERC helped me out tremendously after a relapse.Posted on Google Ryan BleiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Empowered Recovery Center has truly been a life-changing experience for me. I entered the program last June and remained in treatment for a full year. Throughout that time, I experienced a level of care, compassion, and professionalism that sets this facility apart. My first meeting was with Rob, the Director of Operations. From day one, he made me feel welcome, helped me get settled in, and clearly explained what to expect from the program. Whenever I needed assistance, Rob consistently went above and beyond to make sure I had the support I needed. I was also incredibly fortunate to work with my therapist, Christine. She was exceptional in helping me process my emotions and identify the underlying issues that contributed to my addiction. Beyond our therapy sessions, she was always willing to listen, offer guidance, and provide support whenever I was struggling with personal challenges. The group therapy sessions were outstanding. The facilitators created an environment where everyone felt heard while keeping discussions productive, focused, and meaningful. Their guidance played a significant role in my recovery journey. Having been to treatment approximately ten times over the years, I can honestly say that Empowered stands out as one of the best recovery facilities I have ever attended. The genuine care, dedication, and commitment the staff have for their clients are evident every single day. I want to give a special thank you to Michael, Daniel, and Al. Their groups were incredibly impactful, and their passion for recovery and helping those still struggling with addiction is truly inspiring. They are committed to carrying the message of hope to anyone seeking recovery. Thank you, Empowered, for everything you've done for me. Your support has made a lasting impact on my life, and I will always be grateful for the role you played in my recovery journeyPosted on Google Denise AdamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

THANK YOU EMPOWERED!Posted on Google Ivan MosleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful place. Great counsolers and therapists. I really leaned a lot at this program, and feel like it really set me up to thrive out in the world. Everyone there, including other clients, helped me through a family tragedy. I still stop by every now and again. I would recommend this place to anyone who is coming out of an inpatient treatment center looking for a long term IOP program.Posted on Google Jessica CainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Empowered Recovery Center truly changed my life. When I came through the doors, I was in one of the darkest places I’d ever been. The staff met me with compassion, encouragement, and accountability every step of the way. The program gave me the tools, support, and confidence I needed to build a strong foundation for recovery. I never felt like just another client. I felt genuinely cared for by people who wanted to see me succeed long after I graduated. Today, I’m proud to say I’m 280 days sober, and I know Empowered Recovery Center played a huge role in helping me get here. Recovery isn’t easy, but having the right people in your corner makes all the difference. I will always be grateful to everyone at Empowered Recovery Center for believing in me when I needed it most. If you’re considering getting help for yourself or a loved one, I can’t recommend them enough. Choosing this program was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.Posted on Google Lexi BakerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
