Exciting weekend at the Ultra Music Festival! While our video showcases the festival's vibrant atmosphere, it doesn't capture the two overdose incidents swiftly addressed and safely administered thanks to our distribution of Naloxone - NARCAN® Nasal Spray Canada®. The quick actions of those involved ensured the safety of those affected. The return of friends to our booth the next day, sharing relief that their friends were okay and seeking more Naloxone, underscores the importance of our ongoing efforts in crisis intervention. Yet, behind the scenes lies four years of relentless dedication to becoming partners with @Ultra Music Festival. Countless volunteers, myself included, worked to secure a presence at Ultra Music Festival and train staff at various music venues during music week. This initiative transcends Naloxone (NARCAN® Nasal Spray Canada) distribution; it embodies our unwavering resolve to save lives and empower our community. This is particularly vital as Miami-Dade County confronts a pressing mental health and opioid crisis. By supporting our cause,F Fentanyl Inc( F-Fent.org/donate) you can help us continue our work. We are not just saving lives; we're fostering community healing. For businesses, it's also about financial prudence, sparing partners at the expense of absenteeism and tragic loss. Consider these compelling stats: - A recent Congressional Commission report revealed an annual cost to the US of $1 trillion; the biggest impact is lost productivity. (Source Congressional Commission Report ) - Substance use disorder is the #1 most expensive related health cost for business. (Source Milliman Cap Group) It's a win-win-win scenario for the #mentalhealth and #wellbeing of everyone in Miami-Dade County-Dade and our community partners. 💜💊🤑 Now, it's time for a well-deserved day of rest! Special thanks to Thomas Guerra, M.S., @Jonathan GartelleOur, @Leydi Suarez Lauren Braid, Vivian Belzaguy Hunter, Emily (Milly) Milton, @Shai Ben David, David Sinopoli, Carolina Zapata, @Daniella Caballero, @Yamilla Rolan Escolana, Florida Harm Reduction Initiative, Impact Deposits Corp., AIDS HEALTH FOUNDATION, RITELIFE SERVICES and the rest for the opportunity and unwavering support of our mission. #CrisisIntervention #SafetyFirst #UltraMusicFestival

[Accessibility should never be an after thought] The outrage that followed this music festivals attempt at providing an accessible viewing space puts a further spotlight on accessibility being a part of our planning not an afterthought. A lesson for all of us and one we should all be more mindful of. When it comes to the accessibility of your product or service, it’s never too late to make changes. Review what you have, and change how you deliver it in the future and that way it’s no longer an afterthought but simply what you do. #WorldMoreAccessible #WeAreBillionStrong https://bit.ly/450k6QS

Music festival safety tips! It's almost like I wrote these two for my own kids 😉 : Prioritize your safety, not capturing content. If unsafe activity or a fight breaks out, move to safety...not to record. Your wellbeing is more important than “likes." If you see someone in distress, alert event staff instead of your followers. https://lnkd.in/gQ2JYBmf
