The Flagler County Drug Court Foundation HOPE (Helping Our Participants Excel) provided Narcan training and distribution to staff of the Flagler County Tax Collector’s Office on Feb. 19 at the Flagler County Emergency Operations Center building.

“Shelly Edmonson (Tax Collector operations manager) sought us out,” said the foundation’s Renee DeAngelis. “She said they have 100,000 people a year who come through their office and they should be prepared for an emergency.”

Narcan is a medication that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose.

“We had almost 50 attendees. It was a great group,” DeAngelis said. “They were very enthusiastic about getting the training.”
