Trump heralds Clinton Foundation program in opioid speech

The President touted the work of Adapt Pharma, a program that makes Narcan -- a type of drug that can save someone who is overdosing on opioids -- more available in colleges and universities.

"Adapt Pharma makes an overdose-reversing drug for opioids, which I've watched and seen work. It's called Narcan. It's actually incredible. Today, we applaud Adapt Pharma's decision to provide free -- free Narcan to all high schools, colleges and universities in America," Trump said.

He then brought Mike Kelly, the president of Adapt Pharma, on stage and heralded him for his "amazing and generous offer."

The program was made possible in 2017 because of a partnership with the Clinton Foundation, according to releases from the pharmaceutical company and the foundation. It was announced at the at the 2017 meeting of the Clinton Health Matters Activation Summit.

"This new program ... is part of an ongoing collaboration between the Clinton Health Matters Initiative (CHMI) and Adapt Pharma," the 2017 release from Adapt Pharma said. "As of today, all Title IV-eligible, degree-granting colleges and universities in the United States can apply to receive up to four free cartons (eight 4mg doses) of NARCAN® Nasal Spray."

Gillian Sealy, CEO of the Clinton Health Matters Initiative, said at the time that the foundation was partnering with "Adapt Pharma to help put an end to this epidemic is an important step."

Chelsea Clinton, Bill and Hillary Clinton's daughter and someone who has been critical of Trump throughout his administration, thanked the President for mentioning the effort.

"Mr. President, thank you for recognizing the @ClintonFdn's work with Adapt Pharma to prevent opioid overdose deaths and save lives," she wrote, linking to an article from Mic, which reported Trump's reference Monday.
