REVIVE! is the Opioid Overdose and Naloxone Education (OONE) program for the Commonwealth of Virginia. REVIVE! provides training to professionals, stakeholders, and others on how to recognize and respond to an opioid overdose emergency with the administration of naloxone (Narcan ®). REVIVE! is a collaborative effort led by the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS) working alongside the Virginia Department of Health, the Virginia Department of Health Professions, recovery community organizations such as the McShin Foundation, OneCare of Southwest Virginia, the Substance Abuse and Addiction Recovery Alliance of Virginia (SAARA), and other stakeholders

Lay Rescuer Training of Trainers is approximately 2 hours long and covers everything in the REVIVE! Lay Rescuer Training with additional focus and discussion of each specific training objective to ensure a thorough understanding of the materials trainers will be presenting on. This training teaches trainers how to conduct trainings and is appropriate for individuals who intend on leading trainings in the community.

As a REVIVE! Trainer you can offer the REVIVE! Lay Rescuer Training to your clients, patients, and community members and have access to free Narcan through the Virginia Department of Health.
