Podcast: Drug abuse among local teens

Last October, Stephanie Shepard lost her son, age 18, to a drug overdose.  Since then, she has formed a nonprofit Hope Above Fear to establish a youth inpatient rehab in Escambia County.  She is running three surveys to provide the county’s Opioid Task Force with data on opioid/fentanyl abuse among local children ages 19 and under.

 

 

Parent Substance Abuse Survey – this is for parents who currently have children ages 13-19 who have in the past or are currently struggling with substance abuse.
