Real-World Impact
Barbers as Lifesavers
Barbers are often the first to notice a change in their community. Through GRO's Narcan training, we've equipped trusted barbers with the skills to save lives. Throughout North Carolina, these trained professionals have become the first responders for opioid overdoses, bridging the gap for all residents.
Community Trust
Barbershops are more than just a place for a haircut. They are the heart of the neighborhood, where relationships are built and trust is earned. GRO leverages this trust to connect residents with mental health resources they may not otherwise encounter.
Empowering Families
We partner with schools and community organizations to provide literacy and life-saving training. By equipping barbers with these skills, we are strengthening families and creating a safer, more informed community for everyone.
Community Partners
We collaborate with local schools, healthcare providers, and mental health professionals to ensure our residents have access to the resources they need to thrive.Â
