I got my training through a county initiative. They actually have a van that will drive around, advertise where they will be parked, set up coffee and doughnuts and train concerned family members, friends, users, etc, and supply them with narcan and help them find places to get help if they want it.

Oh, I've gone. My state is huge on narcan. It is required in every public school. I know we have to go there, I do. But also need the order to proceed. It may be happening this school year. I have a monthly meeting to schedule with my school physician soon.
Yes. Massachusetts does need a signed order.
