Drug Use and Overdose in Salt Lake County
Fatal overdoses have fallen nationally and in Utah over the past two years. Salt Lake County still records a higher rate than the state as a whole. Keep both facts in view before reading too much into any single neighborhood figure.
- 69,973 provisional drug overdose deaths in the United States in 2025, down almost 14% from 81,313 in 2024 and the third straight annual decline.
- 296 fatal drug overdoses among Salt Lake County residents in the 12 months ending June 30, 2025.
- 258 drug poisoning deaths in the SLC downtown area. This is the total over ten years for 2013 through 2022. These numbers are adjusted by age to 68.5 per 100,000 and are the highest rate of any small area in the county.
The 296 deaths are a county-level figure. Utah does not publish an annual overdose count for Salt Lake City on its own. The Utah Small Area figures used on this page are the most granular data available and are ten-year totals for 2013 through 2022. This is not from the current year.
Utah publishes drug poisoning deaths by Utah Small Area. This geography is scaled by neighborhoods that divide Salt Lake County into roughly two dozen named units.
The following figures are totals for the ten years from 2013 through 2022 and adjusted by age per 100,000 to the 2000 U.S. standard population taken from the Utah Death Certificate Database held by the Office of Vital Records and Statistics at the Utah Department of Health and Human Services.
The west side of SLC in Rose Park recorded 122 drug poisoning deaths in those ten years at a rate of 36.8 per 100,000 and SLC Glendale recorded 75 at 34.2 per 100,000. On the other end of the same city, SLC Foothill and East Bench recorded 26 deaths at 12.0 per 100,000. The downtown small area listed above sits higher than any of them.
Those differences are within a single municipality. They are historical totals rather than a current count. What they describe is the burden of overdoses in that decade. This is a useful context when you are deciding where to look for naloxone, treatment or a regular meeting.
Treatment Options In and Near Salt Lake City
NA works seamlessly with clinical treatment rather than in place of it. Many people in Salt Lake City use both. Care in the valley can include withdrawal management, residential programs, intensive outpatient and standard outpatient counseling and medication for opioid use disorder treatment.
Methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone are the standard of care for opioid use disorder. They lower overdose risk and help people stay in treatment. Importantly, taking them does not disqualify you from attending NA. Salt Lake City and the surrounding valley have opioid treatment programs that dispense methadone and prescribers who write prescriptions for buprenorphine.

See our guides to drug detox and narcotics addiction treatment for background on what each level of care involves.
Naloxone and Harm Reduction
Naloxone reverses an opioid overdose, works within minutes and is safe to give to someone who may or may not be overdosing. Utah pharmacies dispense naloxone under a statewide standing order in place since December 8, 2016.
Over-the-counter versions are available without a prescription. Purchasing under the standing order allows you to submit the bill to your insurance.
The Opiate Overdose Response Act was enacted in May 2016. This law lets prescribers and pharmacists supply naloxone to a person at risk of overdose or to their family and friends and gives civil immunity to designated outreach providers who distribute or administer it.
Where to get naloxone in and around Salt Lake City:
- Utah pharmacies
Sold over the counter and dispensed under the statewide standing order without a personal prescription. - Stop the Opidemic
The state program takes requests for free naloxone kits through an online form at opidemic.utah.gov. - Utah Naloxone
Salt Lake City at (385) 495-9050. Distributes free kits and publishes a map at utahnaloxone.org of Utah libraries and fire stations that stock free naloxone for public pickup. - Utah Harm Reduction Coalition

Salt Lake City at (801) 428-3500. Listed in Utah Department of Health and Human Services materials on syringe services and naloxone access.
Call or check the organization’s site before making a trip since hours and locations for outreach programs can change.
Utah Code section 58-37-8(16) gives a person who calls for help during an overdose, or who helps someone else call, an affirmative defense against a drug possession charge.
This Good Samaritan law is effective provided you stay at the scene and cooperate with responders. The protection is written for the caller and does not clearly extend to the person who overdosed. Calling 911 regardless can save a life.

Salt Lake City NA Meetings FAQ
Are there NA meetings in Salt Lake City?
Yes. Salt Lake City has an active NA meeting list and the finder at the top of this page shows current times, locations and formats. The finder returns groups in nearby communities such as South Salt Lake, Sugar House and Murray.
What is the difference between an open and a closed NA meeting?
An open meeting is open to anyone, including family members, partners and people who are only trying to understand the program. A closed meeting is for people who use drugs or think they may have a problem with drugs. Salt Lake City has both and the finder above labels which is which.
Are there LGBTQ+ NA meetings in Salt Lake City?
Yes. LGBTQ+ meetings appear on the Salt Lake City list. They follow the same NA format as any other meeting and exist so people can talk about recovery in a room where their experience is understood. Check the finder above for the current schedule since times and locations change.
Are there men’s NA meetings in Salt Lake City?
Yes. Men’s meetings are among the formats listed in Salt Lake City. They cover the same steps and readings as other NA meetings, with attendance limited to men. The area helpline, 801-25-CLEAN (801-252-5326), can confirm what is running if the schedule is unclear.
Does NA work alongside methadone or buprenorphine?
Yes. Medications for opioid use disorder, including methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone, are the evidence-based standard of care, and many people who attend NA take them. Under its own traditions NA has no opinion on outside issues, medical treatment included, and practice varies from group to group. If you are on medication and unsure how it will land, an open meeting or a call to the area helpline is a reasonable first step.
