Friday, August 21 is National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day.

One conversation could save a life.
Fentanyl is one of the most dangerous drugs facing our communities today. It is often hidden in counterfeit pills or mixed into counterfeit prescription medications without a person's knowledge. As this powerful video explains, one mistake can have permanent consequences.
This National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day, we encourage every parent, caregiver, and student to take just a few minutes to watch this important message together and explore the free resources available for Nassau County families.

🎥 Watch the video: https://player.vimeo.com/video/925904443?h=12e0a90225

📚 Access the Family Resources on our website.
The Family Resources include:
• A Fentanyl Fact Sheet
• Parent Conversation Toolkit
• Student Online Learning Opportunity (earn 1.5 community service hours)
• Additional videos and educational resources

After watching the video, ask your child:
• What did you learn?
• Did anything surprise you?
• What would you do if someone offered you a pill that wasn't prescribed to you?
• Who are the trusted adults you can always talk to?

A few minutes of learning today could make a life-changing difference tomorrow.
Know the facts. Start the conversation. Protect your future.
