International Overdose Awareness Day

Monday, August 31, 2026
1PM to 4PM (Drop-In). Join us at 1:00PM for speakers and remembrances.

The Canadian Mental Health Association, Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit, Gilbert Centre and  Midland Public Library have coordinated on behalf of the North Simcoe Drug Strategy Group to create an event where our community can join together to remember those we’ve lost, reflect on the ongoing drug toxicity crisis, and strengthen our collective call for justice, compassion, and change.

This event will feature:
A peer-led, interactive memorial project
Harm reduction info and naloxone
Light refreshments and community connection
All are welcome. Whether you come to grieve, connect, or learn, this space is for you.
