Caregivers play a key role in helping young people navigate the risks that exist in today’s world.

In this webinar, find out what every parent, caregiver, and support person needs to know about fentanyl and the extreme dangers of counterfeit prescription pills laced with fentanyl and methamphetamine. Did you know that just 2 milligrams of fentanyl can kill an average adult? Counterfeit pills are often mass-produced by criminal networks, sold as legitimate medications but may be laced with deadly doses. Join Fidel Arroyo Jr, the Community Outreach Specialist with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Chicago Field Division for this informative session on how to protect and support the children and youth that you serve.
