FENTANYL, FENTANYL, NARCAN NARCAN

We are thrilled to share the outcomes of the second of three virtual town hall conversations on FENTANYL, NARCAN, and our CHILDREN'S HEALTH. The Suburban Ramsey Family Collaborative proudly hosted this event, bringing together more than 100 attendees from our diverse community. Recognizing the importance of inclusivity, we ensured that language would never be a barrier. Thanks to the support of our community, we provided professional interpreters for Spanish, Somali, Hmong, and Karen languages, making this town hall accessible to all.

Their expertise and passion ignited meaningful discussions and empowered our community to take proactive measures. Through interactive Q&A sessions, attendees actively engaged with our panelists, sharing their experiences, concerns, and perspectives. Together, we explored effective strategies to address this crisis, the life-saving potential of Narcan and how Social Media affects our children's mental health.
