Did you know that…

•  - Unsuspecting teens in our community are getting counterfeit pills made from deadly fentanyl on social media.  
• - Fentanyl is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine. 
• - You can’t smell or taste fentanyl. You can’t tell if there’s fentanyl in the pills by looking at them. 
• - The amount of fentanyl that it takes to overdose is equivalent to 2 grains of sand.   

Attendees will be provided with a presentation on fentanyl in Pierce County and engage in a community conversation about the dangers of fentanyl with law enforcement, district representatives, and health experts. Please take this short survey (now closed) to help us plan for attendance and questions you may have.
