Amy Neville's Mission: Raising Fentanyl Awareness Through Heartfelt Advocacy

You don't know what you're getting and some places are getting hit so much worse. That's why I'm so focused on education and awareness, because when we were teens we could experiment.
Amy Neville's world turned upside down when she lost her 14-year-old son, Alexander, to fentanyl poisoning. In this poignant episode of 'Recovery and Company', Amy shares the devastating impact of this illicit drug and how it propelled her to establish The Alexander Neville Foundation. This foundation is more than just a tribute; it's a beacon of hope and education for families grappling with the realities of drug abuse.
Amy delves into the strength and dangers of fentanyl, offering practical advice on how to discuss this critical issue with children. The conversation also touches on the dark side of social media, where drugs are often sold, and the importance of breaking the stigma surrounding addiction. Amy emphasizes the life-saving role of Narcan and provides insights on how communities can get involved in drug prevention efforts.
This episode is a heartfelt call to action, urging listeners to educate themselves and their loved ones about the perils of fentanyl. It's a moving testament to a mother's love and her relentless fight to prevent other families from experiencing similar heartbreak.
