Musicians Join the Fight to Save Lives
In November 2024, the DEA Museum’s traveling Faces of Fentanyl memorial exhibit was on display for artists to see in Nashville, Tennessee ahead of the Country Music Awards. With the support of the DEA Educational Foundation and Channel Greatness, musicians toured the exhibit, which contains more than 1,000 photos sent to DEA from families of those lost to fentanyl. After learning more about DEA’s campaign, several artists used their voices to Join in the Fight to Save Lives.
Their participation led to the development of more than fifteen public service announcements that can be shared with your social media following. Visit the “Join the Fight to Save Lives” web page, watch the videos, and then share them with people you care about and the community you serve.

Partnership Offers Grief Support
Partnership to End Addiction offers a compassionate and supportive grief support group for parents whose child has died due to any substance-related causes. This group provides a safe space for parents to share their experiences, find comfort, and connect with others who understand their unique grief journey. Our facilitators, who are trained in parent coaching, guide the group discussions and help parents navigate the complexities of grief. The group meets online, allowing parents to join from the comfort of their own homes. In addition to the support group, we offer resources and advocacy opportunities to help parents honor their child's memory and find hope in their healing process.
