The New York State Association of Coroners and Medical Examiners (NYSACCME), in partnership with the New York State Association of Counties (NYSAC), are proud to present a marketing campaign designed to bring awareness to the signs of opioid abuse.

This eye-opening campaign will run throughout New York State. 30 second vignettes will run on television in all NYS markets and a long form, 60 second message will be delivered digitally, as well.

A comprehensive website, seethesignssavealife.org was created to anchor this campaign and will be a resource for anyone who is affected by this fast growing epidemic.

Scott Schmidt, President, NYSACCME, explains why his organization was compelled to address this important issue.

“The rationale behind this PSA was simple. We as Coroners, Medical Examiners and Funeral Directors are tired of watching people die senselessly.”

“While we aren’t on the front lines of this epidemic, (such as Fire and EMS personnel), we are on the front line of dealing with the families during the aftermath as the last responders.”
