Take a look below for important fentanyl resources and a tip for parents during this busy time of year. Follow us on IG for more information @samchasefund, or find us on Facebook as The Sam Chase Fund page.
May 9th was the 2nd annual National Fentanyl Awareness Day where over 700 + organizations help to spread the word on the dangers of fentanyl.
There were many free, virtual webinars with experts on a variety of topics related to the illicit fentanyl crisis.
We wanted to include two of these below. You can find more on the Song for Charlie website:
This time of year can be stressful for parents and students. Here are a few gentle reminders:
1) when your kiddo is stressed, overwhelmed, etc... your job may not be to solve. Perhaps they desperately need these feelings to be witnessed, heard, seen, and held.
2) it may help to remember these are their emotions, they don't have to be yours.
3) this is their journey, parenting from fear and frustration rarely supports the relationship during these times of pressure and stress.
Hope this helps. You are doing great! Remember to give yourself grace and to care for yourself! Courtney xoxo
Looking Ahead
What we are currently working on...
As the school year wraps up, we are doing our last few fentanyl assemblies and presentations. We truly hope this keeps our kids safe and making good choices this summer. Keep the conversations going at home! If you need help with this, feel free to reach out.
If you have attended an assembly and are willing to write a short review, please send it to samchasefund@gmail.com. Thank you!
What's coming up...
We get to announce our scholarship recipients next month! We have some wonderful things to share regarding our process this year! ! We can't wait to honor these graduates!
July 23rd We will be at the Concert in the Park in Mt Shasta with a bunch of fun merch! We hear there is even a t-shirt blaster giving out some free t-shirts! Come see us!
