HEALTH NEWS
- ➤ Funding for the Missouri Institute of Mental Health's Narcan program (MO-CORPS) may be cut if a federal $56 million grant is reduced, and officials warn that more overdose deaths could result from fewer trained first responders and limited naloxone supplies. The program has trained over 7,760 responders statewide and supplied more than 17,000 naloxone units, meaning rural areas will suffer the most if this resource is lost. KRCG-TV
