There are more than 100 Save A Life stations throughout Oakland County. These supplies include Naloxone, Fentanyl Test Strips, Xylazine Test Strips (at select locations), Deterra Drug Deactivation bags, and Oakland County specific resource pamphlets. These stations are made possible through our partnership with the Alliance of Coalitions for Healthy Communities, who offer a wide variety of prevention programs and services.
Driven by the mission to empower healthy communities through innovative prevention, wellness, and recovery support, the Alliance of Coalitions serves as an umbrella organization for more than 50 local communities.
They align to offer recovery support, wellness and prevention education for anyone who is or could be affected by substance misuse. Their educational offerings come in many forms, and for a variety of different arenas (from personal to group settings).
