Founded with Purpose
NAP101 was founded by Dyrell Anthony, a public health educator and youth advocate whose work bridges evidence-based research with lived experience.
Our programs are designed for:
- Students and educators
- Tribal nations and underserved communities
- Healthcare professionals
- Grassroots advocates and community leaders
What We Offer
- Continuing education & certification in opioid and fentanyl prevention
- Hands-on naloxone (Narcan) training and overdose-response skills

From understanding the dangers of counterfeit pills to recognizing how trauma intersects with addiction, our resources are built to protect lives, build trust, and foster healing.
A Movement for Change
NAP101 is more than an education initiative — it’s a national movement grounded in:
- Awareness over fear
- Compassion over stigma
- Action over silence
Together, we are creating a culture of care, truth, and empowerment — one conversation, one training, and one life at a time.
