Bring the Movement to Your Campus—on NFAD or Any Day
While fentanyl deaths have recently declined from record highs, nearly half of teens remain unaware of the deadly risks from counterfeit prescription pills. Educators and student leaders play a vital role in protecting young lives through education and peer support. And while NFAD is officially observed on April 29th, we support you in taking action whenever works best for your campus.
Real Talk About Fake Pills brings vital fentanyl awareness directly to students through a powerful 20-minute film developed with medical experts and youth educators. Our accompanying discussion guide and classroom materials help foster important conversations about safety.
Talk to Your Community Check with campus leaders about your event's timing and any requirements for space or permits.
Choose Your Activity Plan an event or campaign that works for your community. Visit Song for Charlie's Peer to Peer program for ideas, including opportunities to become a peer mentor and lead fentanyl awareness efforts on your campus.
Use our promotional materials and social media prompts to get the word out.
"Do you know where your pill or powder came from? Unless you got it from a pharmacy or your doctor, it could contain a lethal dose of fentanyl. Protect yourself and your friends by learning the facts and spreading the word at fentanylawarenessday.org." #NoRandomPills
"Fentanyl is used to make fake pills disguised as Oxycontin, Percocet and Xanax. You can’t fix real stress with fake pills. Take action and help your friends find the support they really need. For more information head to fentanylawarenessday.org." #NoRandomPills
"Fentanyl is 50X stronger than heroin and present in many drugs (pills and powders) we might come across online, on campus and on the street. You don’t know what you don’t know. Spread the word and find more resources at fentanylawarenessday.org." #JustSayKNOW
Every conversation, every event, and every share brings us closer to a world where the threat of fentanyl is widely recognized and combated. Together, we can turn awareness into life-saving action.
