SUPE (Substance Use Prevention Education - Fentanyl Addictions, https://www.addicted.org/supe/fentanyl/parents-guide-to-fentanyl/

We recently created a great resource to complement our Parent's Guide to Fentanyl:

  • Protecting Children From Online Drug Dealers: This resource provides essential tools to safeguard children online, including the risks of social media, the "Emoji code" to identify online drug dealing, insights into the dark web, and other online safety measures. It also has an informative video that goes in-depth about this subject. 

Division On Addictions is an organization that helps vulnerable Illinois residents who are addicted to drugs or alcohol locate proper treatment options.

Alcoholism and drug addiction are terrible crises affecting all ages in our communities – from teenagers to senior citizens.

Finding treatment facilities that are able to understand the underlying causes of the addiction, and that are able to cure an individual so as to prevent any relapse, is often a very hard task. This is where we come in. We help those in greatest need to find addiction treatment options that are the best for each individual situation. Our services are 100% free.

Our comprehensive guide comes with a handful of information on:

  • Symptom comparisons of autism and addiction
  • How autism increases risk factors for addiction
  • Treatment options for people with autism
  • & much more
