Bio

Founder of a non profit (momsagainstdrugs.com) to bring awareness and to end the stigma of overdose and substance use disorder. We are currently planning drug epidemic awareness walks across every state.

My 19 year old son was on the spectrum and struggled with anxiety and depression. This led to him self-medicating and to addiction. He died two years ago from a fentynal overdose. I am trying to get legislation passed in California for mandatory mental health education in grades K-12 and sensible drug education in upper grades. Too many of our beautiful children are dying. I’m trying to get the word out to teens and young adults that most street drugs are laced with fentanyl and one pill or line can kill. They need to know there are products such as fentynal drug testing strips and Narcan that can save lives.
I'm looking for influencers to help spread the word and I'm open to any other suggestions as to how to get the message across.
