South Shore Hospital, the Duxbury Knights of Columbus and the Duxbury Police Department have teamed up to start a new campaign in town called Friends Don’t Let Friends Die.
The campaign centers on the distribution of small business cards and bookmarks with instructions for keeping a drug overdose victim safe and calling 911; the cards also have reminders of Massachusetts’ Good Samaritan Law (Section 34A), which protects individuals from getting charged in a drug case if they call authorities to save themselves or a friend from an overdose death.
Duxbury Police Chief Matthew Clancy says other communities have already reached out to the town to share resources:
The Friends Don’t Let Friends Die Campaign is fully supported by Duxbury FACTS, Plymouth County Sheriff Joe McDonald, Plymouth County D.A. Tim Cruz, State Rep. Josh Cutler and Senator Patrick O’Connor.
