From February 18,  2023 post.

Georgia Overdose Prevention-Georgia Overdose Prevention’s mission is to educate Georgians about the new laws governing drug overdose incidents and to distribute opioid overdose rescue kits to anyone who knows a person at risk for opioid/opiate overdose.

Naloxone is available from Georgia Overdose Prevention for those at high risk* of overdose and their loved ones. Naloxone is also available at GA pharmacies, does not require a personal prescription, and is covered by most insurances. Georgia Overdose Prevention DOES NOT provide naloxone to healthcare providers, law enforcement, any type of first responder, or schools.
