Session Descriptions

  • New 20-Minute Student Educational Film: “Real Talk About Fake Pills”

    Real Talk About Fake Pills is a 20-minute educational film for teens, designed to raise awareness about the dangers of fentanyl and fake pills. The film provides SFC’s fact-based education and reinforces a clear harm prevention message: “No Random Pills.” Recently piloted by the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the film is designed for students ages 12 and up and can be shown in health classes, school assemblies, and peer-led presentations. Also included with film are expert discussion guides for peers and educators developed by professionals to support conversations and presentations.

    • Learning Objectives:

      • The realities of fentanyl and fake pills in the drug supply

      • Practical advice to stay safe, including the "No Random Pills" mantra

      • How to identify signs of an opioid overdose and respond with naloxone

  • Preparing for National Fentanyl Awareness Day This year National Fentanyl Awareness Day is April 29th. We are calling for our allies to take action to save lives. Now is the time to decide how your organization can go beyond awareness to create a flagship moment that will make an impact in your community. Whether you are part of a government entity, corporation, school or non-profit, anyone can take action to save a life, and we will provide you with ideas and resources to help!
