💜 SSTAR Prevention & the SATF at Fall River Overdose Awareness Day 💜

On Friday, August 28th, SSTAR Prevention and the Fall River Substance Addiction Task Force (SATF) had the honor of participating in Fall River’s Overdose Awareness Day. We came together with community members, local organizations, and partners to remember those we’ve lost, support those impacted by substance use, and raise awareness about prevention, recovery, and hope. 🕊️💜

We were grateful to connect with the community, share resources, and stand together in support of a healthier and more compassionate Fall River. 💜🤝

Together, we can reduce stigma, strengthen our community, and remind people that recovery and hope are always possible. 🌟
