Every overdose reversed is an opportunity to save a life—and it all begins with awareness, education, and community action. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor is joined by Dr. Jorge Petit, the Strategy and Development Advisor at Zero Overdose, a national non-profit organization committed to preventing overdose deaths. With over 30 years of experience in community and public psychiatry, Dr. Petit has been a champion for vulnerable populations, particularly those impacted by substance use disorders. His extensive career includes founding Quality Healthcare Solutions and serving in leadership roles at Coordinated Behavioral Care and Beacon Health Options. Today, he’ll share insights into overdose risk factors, harm reduction strategies, and how Zero Overdose is shaping the future of overdose prevention policies. We’re thrilled to have him on the show to highlight this critical work.
