Losing a child is a pain that words can never fully capture. It’s a wound that doest heal but becomes a part of who you are. In the midst of the heartbreak, we hold onto their memory, honoring their life by finding strength, supporting others, and turning our grief into a legacy of love and purpose.

Parents need to understand that when a child is going through substance use, offering support is essential- but so is working on their own journey of healing, growth, and understanding.

Actions to Take

Educate yourself and those around you, including your children

Be open about the risks

Recognize the signs of an overdose

Keep Naloxone on hand

Warn about unknown sources

Stay informed

Promote healthy alternatives

Set a positive example

Parents need support too-grief and healing aren’t meant to be faced alone
