Organization remembers addiction victims

BERWICK, COLUMBIA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU)— Coming together to remember lives lost to overdose.

Friday March 6 is Black Balloon Day, but instead of releasing balloons, organizers have created their own unique memorial.

Rows of glowing luminary bags stand as a tribute, each one representing a loved one taken by addiction.

‘First Friday’ event features local artists

The event brings awareness to substance use and offers support to grieving families.

Volunteers are also distributing Narcan kits and harm reduction resources to help prevent future tragedies.
