Harm Reduction Resources

Naloxone Distribution

Naloxone, also known as Narcan, is an opioid blocker that reverses the effects of opioids. It can reverse an overdose caused by an opioid for approximately 30-90 minutes, which means it is still important to call 9-1-1. Community members can obtain a free naloxone kit, after a brief training, at Clermont Recovery Center (1088 Wasserman Way, Batavia, OH 45103). Call 513-735-8100 for an appointment.

See Something! Say Something!

The Clermont County Narcotics Unit encourages the use of their hotline, (513) 625-2806, to report illegal drug activity. All calls are evaluated for actionable intelligence, which can be used to initiate investigations. 


Citizens using the hotline are requested to leave a name and return telephone number when leaving a tip. All information remains confidential, and the caller’s identification is never revealed outside of the Unit.


Callback information allows the investigator to get additional information on the complaint or to get answers to questions which may arise during the course of the investigation.


Partnering with local law enforcement to help disrupt the trafficking of illegal narcotics in our county will improve the lives of everyone in the county. By working together and supporting law enforcement, we can save lives and save money.

Tips for businesses and homeowners, which may indicate drug use:

  • Be aware of repeat customers who use your store or gas station daily to meet with people whether in the parking lot or in bathrooms.
  • Monitor store bathrooms of stores for customers spending an excessive amount of time in them.
  • Monitor cars that remain parked for extended periods of time in your lots and are occupied.
  • Monitor for people who appear to be sleeping in their cars on your lots.
  • Watch for pale, disheveled customers who appear to be manic in nature or nodding off.
  • Watch for customers wearing long sleeves in hotter temperatures (hiding track marks).
  • Watch for cars pulling up to each other on the driver's side in lots for long periods of time.
  • Customers stealing magazine subscription cards out of magazines at stores. Cards can be used to package black tar heroin.
  • Monitor for neighbors with an excessive amount of traffic coming to and from their house at all hours of the day.
  • Monitor for hand-to-hand exchanges done at the street or from cars on the street.

Law enforcement can't fight the use of illegal drugs alone!
