The Calexico Police Department has received a donation of 200 doses of Narcan.
Narcan is administered to counter the effects of an opioid overdose. The donation was made by the Imperial County Canine Institute (ICCI) to support the Calexico Police Departments fight against the opioid crises. Equipping Calexico officers with Narcan provides them with a life-saving tool to give individuals a chance to recover and possibly rebuild. As a border city agency, Calexico Police are considered to be on the frontlines of the opioid crisis.
