The most
powerful
weapon in
the war on
fentanyl
is a story.
The power of a story
Our stories are powerful because they are relatable. These real accounts are about high schoolers, college students, young professionals just like the ones we know and love. The girl next door, the college grad you know will go far, the kid you raised with everything you’ve got. These stories prove that fentanyl poisoning can happen to anyone – including your family.
How to Have the Conversation
Relatable stories drive life-saving discussion – and choices. Here’s help so you can have the most impactful and direct dialogue about fentanyl with your family.
“Because of what you shared, we have had a few very deep conversations about situations that might arise in college and how he could navigate them… I am not sure it would have been as easy to discuss otherwise.”
Why right now?
Most parents are completely blind to the prevalence of casual drug use. They think that an “overdose” is an addict’s problem and “it won’t happen to our family.” But all it takes is your loved one thinking they’re taking a prescription Percocet® – and it’s a fake containing fentanyl.
When many of us hear of an “overdose” we assume the victim was an addict. But how can it be an overdose, when they didn’t even know they were taking it? When they may not have ever even heard of fentanyl or know that it could be in the pill in their very hand? That’s why it’s imperative that you tell them.
