About

Mark your calendars for Thursday, August 29, and join us at the Oneida Hotel and Conference Center for KUNHI-YO 2024.

The event is celebrated on an annual basis in honor of International Overdose Awareness Day (IODA), because no one should stand alone in the fight to end overdose.

This year’s IODA theme is “Together we can” which highlights the “strength of coming together and standing in support of those connected to the tragedy of overdose.”
