About This Episode
Join our hosts Dr. Neha Chaudhary and her co-host Hazuri Dhillon in this episode as they interview Jennifer Epstein, Director of Education and Outreach at Song For Charlie.
Song for Charlie is a national family-run nonprofit charity dedicated to raising awareness about ‘fentapills’ — fake pills made of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs. As part of their outreach, they work with experts, educators, parents, and other partners, like BeMe, to reach the most vulnerable group: young people between the ages of 13-24.
In this episode, we will learn more about the epidemic of fentanyl, how it’s impacting teens, Jennifer’s personal connection to the impact of fentanyl on families, and the dangers of self-medication and casual drug use in the fentanyl era. To increase awareness about the dangers of counterfeit or fentanyl-laced pills, BeMe Health has partnered with Song For Charlie for National Fentanyl Awareness Day.
