Everyday more than 130 people in the US die after overdosing on opioids. More than half of all Americans know someone affected by the opioid crisis, but only about one quarter of those with opioid addiction get the treatment they need.
It's time to break the silence around this disease!
Join the LTM Foundation, along with the Bloomingdale and Glendale Heights Police Departments as we raise awareness about the dangers of drug misuse.
- Hear from community leaders about what is being done to prevent this disease.
- Tour the Hidden In Plain Sight Trailer to see common places teens hide drugs
- Save a life! Get trained on administering NARCAN.
- Bring a framed picture of your loved one lost to addiction for our memorial table as we remember all those we have lost with a balloon launch.
- Buy a purple LED porch light to show your support. These can be purchased at Ace Hardware in Bloomingdale or Addison. (quantities limited)
The event is free and open to the public. More details here:
