Miss America Camille Schrier: Educating Kids on Drug Safety
More than anything, it's an awareness thing for me to be able to make parents aware that they are at risk for hurting their child with a medication. It doesn't take long to become addicted to opioids.
Ever thought about how Miss America could make a difference in the opioid crisis? Camille Schrier, the current Miss America, is doing just that. She sat down with Mindy Cronk from Battling Opioids to chat about her mission to raise awareness about drug safety. Using her platform, Camille has been hitting elementary schools with engaging science demonstrations. Imagine a classroom where kids learn to tell the difference between pills and candy—pretty cool, right?
Camille's efforts are especially crucial given the opioid crisis that's gripping so many families and communities. She also touches on the link between mental health and drug abuse prevention, urging healthcare providers to dig deeper into the root causes of mental health issues. Her work is a beacon of hope for those affected by addiction, showing that awareness and education can make a real difference. Tune in to hear how she's making waves in the fight against medication abuse.
