Like so much of the country, Washington state is amid a growing fentanyl/opioid crisis. Overdose deaths have doubled in just three years. Key to the response is community collaboration, so the Department of Social and Health Services, Department of Health, Health Care Authority, tribes and community partners are hosting Facing Fentanyl Together resource fairs at the same time on the same day across the state. The events will take place on Friday, Sept. 20, 2024, which is during Recovery Month.

Head to the event closest to you to hear from experts, people with lived experience and community programs learn and get resources so that you are prepared to respond to your needs or the needs of a loved one.

Facing Fentanyl Together resource fairs are being planned and hosted by Local Planning Areas, partnerships that connect, coordinate, communicate and plan activities and projects together so people across Washington can succeed.
