VENDY
At least 1 machine (vending machine like a snack machine or a machine like a newspaper kiosk) will be placed in the respective community served by the participating organizations. Any person in the community can get naloxone from the machine. The vending machine will require a code that will be placed on the machine for anyone to use. The kiosks are a box that you simply pull open and naloxone can be obtained. Naloxone kits will be provided for free as part of the current naloxone distribution program within each respective organization.
