Fentanyl is involved in more deaths of Americans under 50 than any cause of death, including heart disease, cancer, homicide, suicide and other accidents. 

You are invited to accompany families directly impacted by the fentanyl crisis. Join us in Santa Fe for ‘Fentanyl Awareness Day’ at the state legislature, 490 Old Santa Fe Trail, on Wednesday, Feb. 22 at 9 a.m. 

Friends, families, community leaders, lawmakers, and behavioral health and substance use treatment providers will gather in the Rotunda to advocate for education, awareness, treatment and strategies to fight this plague.
