FentAlert Challenge: Empowering Youth for Safer Choices
Today, SAMHSA issued a challenge to America’s youth: Help us raise awareness about fentanyl and reduce teen overdose deaths.
FentAlert: Empowering Youth for Safer Choices − SAMHSA Fentanyl Awareness Youth Challenge is an opportunity for youth, ages 14-18, to develop a community strategy to educate their peers about fentanyl and fake pills ― and prevent drug overdose deaths.
If you or someone you know uses prescription opioids, please ask any pharmacy staff member about getting a free box of Narcan to keep on hand in case of accidental opioid overdose (while supplies last)!
Do you know someone who is interested in Native American Health?
The THESIS (Tribal Health Experiential Student Internship Seminar) program is a virtual 8-week paid internship (May 20th- July 12th, 2024) for undergrads and recently-graduated college students who are interested in Native American health.
Each intern will be provided a stipend of up to $3,360!
Start with your state or local health departments to find out how, when, and where to get a COVID-19 vaccine in your community. And to avoid a scam, know that:
You can't pay to put your name on a list to get the vaccine. That's a scam.
You can't pay to get early access to the vaccine. That's a scam.
Nobody legit will call, text, or email about the vaccine and ask for your Social Security bank account, or credit card number. That's a scam.
