(Indianapolis, IN) - It’s not exactly a going away present but it’s something that could help prisoners rejoin society.

Narcan will be given to offenders upon their release from prisons in the state.  According to the Indiana Department of Correction, the heroin antidote, Narcan, is another way to help offenders transition back into the community.

More than 2,200 Narcan kits have already been provided to the cause, officials said.
