About this listen

Paramedic and author Peter Canning has witnessed the opioid epidemic from the frontlines, responding to over a thousand overdoses.

He shares his powerful perspective on the overdose crisis, why addiction is not a character flaw, and what every parent, friend, and family member should know to help save a life.
