On April 8, 2020, ILEAS received a renewed grant from the IL. Department of Public Health to expand the NARCAN program. In the last several months, ILEAS and IDPH staff have worked thru data from a statewide survey and from a variety of IDPH information. That analysis added 26 counties to the original 18 counties in South Central Illinois for a total of 44 counties. Click here for a map of the currently targeted counties. Law enforcement agencies in these new counties will now have the opportunity to receive NARCAN (at no cost). The officers and deputies will also have access to the ILEAS NARCAN online training. Questions about this expansion can be directed to Bill DeJarnette at whdejarnette@ileas.org.
