Good Samaritan laws provide immunities or other legal protections for individuals who call for help in the event of an overdose to encourage bystanders who may otherwise not be willing to call out of fear of being arrested for drug-related crimes. The level of protection provided by Good Samaritan laws varies by state. This website provides specific details on Good Samaritan law coverage for all 50 states and the District of Columbia from January 1, 2007, to January 1, 2023.
