Facing Fentanyl

NATIONAL FENTANYL PREVENTION AND AWARENESS DAY AUGUST 21
This day is "official" to our groups and many others. Our organizations work daily to fight the fentanyl scourge and continue to work for Congressional support of this day. We are in constant motion to warn others. Together we see the need for a National Day to engage others outside of our organizations to help address this deadly crisis. We must act now. We believe everyday should include fentanyl awareness.

This day is established in remembrance of the loved ones who lost their lives due to illicit fentanyl poisoning and to acknowledge the devastation this drug has brought to hundreds of thousands of affected family members and friends. This coordinated day of response is for fentanyl awareness organizations and affected families to come together sharing their lived experiences as part of a whole group warning and informing our youth, the public and the unsuspecting.
