An emergency opioid overdose reversal and rescue kit will soon be present in all Raleigh County public schools.


The kit, called a ONEbox, is being purchased by the Beckley Fire Department through a $9,999 grant from the Beckley Area Foundation.


Beckley Firefighter Chris Graham, who is also president of the Southern West Virginia Preparedness Partnership, said the Beckley Fire Department partnered with Raleigh County Schools to put a ONEbox in all of its 27 schools.
