Allies & Friends

Friends are the family we choose for ourselves. In this spirit, we present our nascent list of organizations we’re either directly involved with or feel some connection with. In our advocacy for fentanyl/illicit opioid awareness, social media accountability, mental health awareness and LGBTQ+ rights, this list will only grow and be more inclusive over time. None of us are just one thing; we are complex individuals who over the course of our lives can be many things, and chances are at least one of those things will be subject to greater than normal challenges and stigmas. By bridging differences and building social bridges, we aspire to make this world a better, more empathetic place for ALL of us. We’d be honored to have you join us in this mission.

If you represent an organization that you’d like to see on this list, we encourage you to drop us a note. We are all better and stronger together.

Drug Induced Homicide

“We Are The Voice Of Those Who Cannot Speak For Themselves.

Support our mission to:

• Raise awareness about the effectiveness of criminal investigation and prosecution in reducing deaths related to illicit drugs.
• Advocate for a shift in thinking within our judicial system away from past protocols focusing on accidental to now classifying cases as criminal.
• Advocate for laws that provide greater accountability to those who willfully distribute illicit drugs.
• Support families of victims who were unlawfully delivered a controlled substance resulting in death.”

Void

“VOID was formed to bring to the public’s attention, through education, awareness and legislative advocacy, the immediate danger of sudden death associated with the use of illicit drugs, in particular FENTANYL, and other emerging synthetic analogs. This will be accomplished through the creation of a network of private, state and national governmental organizations, working together, to provide knowledge, preventive tools, and proposed legislation necessary to reduce the number of deaths occurring through this ever-increasing scourge confronting our society. We will speak on behalf of our loved ones, who can no longer speak for themselves.”

Our team is deeply committed to making a difference and saving lives by addressing this dangerous drug’s devastating impact on communities across the country.

• Support for individuals and families affected by fentanyl
• Advocacy and policy initiatives to increase access to treatment and prevent death“

We partner with experts, educators, parents and other influencers to reach the most vulnerable group: young people between the ages 13-24. ​Our programs highlight the emerging dangers of self-medication and casual drug use in the fentanyl era and encourage healthier strategies for coping with stress.”

Harm Reduction Circle

Facing Fentanyl

“Operation Facing Fentanyl is a campaign providing prevention education and opioid reversal kits to schools. Affected families believe safety should be a prerequisite, not an afterthought. Our safety kits can jump-start a school into action. The drug landscape has changed. Illicit drugs are easily accessible and even accessed through social media. The prevalence of illicit fentanyl is driving teen deaths across the country. Unfortunately, synthetic opioids have made opioid reversal an everyday necessity. It makes sense for schools to have Naloxone, and teaching prevention is key to saving lives. Teach students to BE SMART, BEWARE and BE ALIVE.”

bringing awareness to illicit fentanyl, counterfeit drugs and elated to self-harm. “
