Today we honor Martin Luther King, Jr. On this day we reflect on the work that still needs to be done and the changes we can all make together. Today is meant to be a day of service, while celebrating the accomplishments of a great civil rights leader. #westandtogether #mlkjr

On #overdoseawarenessday we also want to recognize the signs and make a difference in 2020. International Overdose Awareness Day spreads the message that overdose death is preventable. Thousands of people die each year from drug overdose. They come from all walks of life.

[Hartford HealthCare @Hartford_Health]

Today we aim to raise awareness of overdose and reduce the stigma associated with drug-related deaths. We also stop to recognize the immense grief felt by family members and friends of those individuals who have died from a drug overdose. #stopthestigma #overdoseawarenessday
