Research notes
US-GA. Discovered 2026-10-22 for #17. Grouped as one case because the spots share sponsor and funding stream but carry no common campaign name. Years are estimated from YouTube's relative upload dates ('Stop Overdoses Now' about 7-8 years ago; State Opioid Response PSAs 6-7 years; 'Neighborhood Watch' about 4 years, so 2022) and are approximate. Funding: SAMHSA STR/SOR grants per DBHDD; no settlement funding found. Agency/production company not found. DBHDD also posted 'Safe & Secure' spots (eight cuts, 2026); their subject (medication or firearm storage) was not confirmed. DBHDD planned PSAs on self-advocacy and safe storage/disposal; not confirmed released. Ad library search: "Georgia DBHDD", "Georgia Department of Behavioral Health". Context, not a campaign result: the DBHDD Response to the Opioid Crisis page (https://dbhdd.georgia.gov/response-opioid-crisis, fetched 2026-10-22) reports State Opioid Response naloxone work of 3,255 citizens trained, 4,851 kits distributed and 435 self-reported overdose reversals (no period given); these figures belong to the training program, not the PSAs, so evidence is unchanged.
