National Substance Abuse Prevention 2024: Hope and Help in the Midst of Crisis
Sep 30, 2024

National Substance Abuse Prevention 2024
Addiction is a battle many are fighting, and the numbers tell a sobering story. The opioid crisis, particularly the surge of fentanyl-related overdoses, has taken a severe toll on communities across the country. According to the CDC, over 100,000 people died from drug overdoses in the past year alone, with synthetic opioids like fentanyl being the primary driver of this increase. Fentanyl, 50-100 times more potent than morphine, continues to claim lives at an alarming rate.
