High School Student Puts OASAS Naloxone to Use

Victor Nelson's Inspiring Story

When 16-year-old Victor Nelson of Poughkeepsie, NY, ordered naloxone from the OASAS website, he never expected he would need to use it. One afternoon, while out with his father, he found himself in a situation where a man claimed he was overdosing and needed help. Victor drew upon the lessons he learned in health class and gave naloxone to the man, who now credits Victor with saving his life.
