Two years ago, Colorado took steps to address the increasing frequency of overdoses of the synthetic opioid fentanyl. A new program aimed to make the antidote -- called naloxone, under the brand name Narcan -- available to police, universities, recreation centers and schools. But as Sun reporter Jennifer Brown discovered, only two school districts in the entire state have taken advantage of the program. She sat down with colleague Kevin Simpson to talk about the program, the tepid response by schools and how one woman's experience helped bring the issue to light.
