Parenting Awareness Michigan

National Fentanyl Awareness Day
Wednesday, April 29

Fentanyl is now involved in more deaths of Americans under 50 than any other cause—including heart disease, cancer, homicide, and su***de. Many young people don’t even realize they’re being exposed, as fentanyl is often hidden in fake pills or mixed into other substances.

Parents and caregivers—talk to your children.
Have open, honest conversations about mental health, substance use, and the real risks of encountering fentanyl.
