Welcome to Our New Fentanyl Awareness Hub!
In 2024, Impact Communities is making fentanyl education and overdose prevention awareness a top priority. That's why we've created this hub to organize current news, coalition activities, and widespread resources. You can also request free Narcan from our team (based on current availability). Email info@impactcommunities.org with your request.
If you have resource information to share, please email Beth Wilson for vetting.
