Overdose deaths have risen to epidemic proportions across the United States, surpassing car accidents in 2018 and continuing today. Many Law Enforcement Agencies have been caught off-guard in their response, or lack thereof, to the crisis. Addiction, coupled with the unbridled greed and ruthlessness of drug cartels have created the perfect storm of a combined Public Safety and Public Health catastrophe: taking the lives of millions of Americans.

Developing and implementing a Law Enforcement response to the overdose epidemic not only builds trust within the community, it also holds Drug Trafficking Organizations and their minions accountable. More importantly, it also saves lives. This course offers a thorough foundation for a departmental response to overdoses and how to investigate drug overdose deaths.

This course is designed for narcotics investigators, homicide investigators, patrol officers, supervisors, task force directors and crime scene investigators.
