Fighting the overdose epidemic
During times of distress and uncertainty, faith-based and community leaders are a valuable resource for their members and communities. See our COVID-19 guide for faith and community leaders.
The U.S. overdose crisis is among the most pressing and indiscriminate health challenges of our time. After years of steady climbing, overdose deaths have risen dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic – with an estimated 93,000 lives lost to overdose in 2020.
Overdose deaths are preventable, and solutions to the crisis lie within our own communities. The Clinton Foundation, with over 15 years of experience tackling complex health challenges, is uniquely positioned to help communities across the U.S. reduce stigma and save lives.

Fighting the overdose crisis requires a comprehensive, sustainable approach and we believe that everyone can play an important part in charting a better path forward for victims, families, and communities across the country. We bring together diverse groups of stakeholders to implement solutions aimed at reversing the crisis and increasing access to naloxone and other lifesaving resources by expanding our work with schools, faith leaders, and communities.
Naloxone is the medication that reverses the physical effects of an opioid overdose. We’ve negotiated innovative agreements with manufacturers of naloxone to lower the cost and have formed partnerships to increase affordability and expand distribution of this critical, lifesaving treatment.

Faith leaders are a trusted source of support and information. They influence attitudes and practices in communities across the U.S., and as such, are a vital part of the solution to confronting the overdose crisis. We’re working to build networks of faith leaders representing different faith traditions, and equip them with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to organize community members, reduce the stigma of addiction, and fight substance use disorders in their communities.
