MCSAP's Light & Unite Red Mini Grant

Light & Unite Red Week 2022 will be March 26th-April 1st with the theme of mental health and reducing stigma, focusing on family events. Light & Unite Red promotes community-wide prevention education and is led by MCSAP. Community organizations, local health departments, high schools, libraries, and government entities work together to shine a light on the dangers of substance use and to unite the Milwaukee community to engage in prevention, encourage treatment, and support recovery throughout the year.

We also will hold an end-of-week resource bash on April 1st in person if COVID numbers begin to drop and we feel it's safe to meet, but if not we'll meet virtually.

Please let me know if you would like to host a table.

DEA Alert: Fake Pills

September 27, 2021 – The US Drug Enforcement Administration warns the American public of the alarming increase in the lethality and availability of fake prescription pills containing fentanyl and methamphetamine. International and domestic criminal drug networks are mass-producing fake pills, falsely marketing them as legitimate prescription pills, and killing unsuspecting Americans.

Pills purchased outside of a licensed pharmacy are illegal, dangerous, and potentially lethal. This alert does not apply to legitimate pharmaceutical medications prescribed by medical professionals and dispensed by pharmacists. Click here to learn more.
