SANDWICH—Parents from Sandwich had an opportunity recently to attend an event that provided insight into how today’s teens and young adults hide drug use.
Through a partnership with the Rx Abuse Leadership Initiative of Illinois (RALI-IL), Code 3 Association, and the Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), State Representative Tom Demmer (R-Dixon) hosted a stop of the RALI CARES educational trailer at Sandwich High School on Oct. 9.
“Communities across Illinois have been impacted by the opioid crisis,” said Demmer. “In 2017 alone, over 70,000 individuals lost their lives from drug overdoses, and the overwhelming majority of those deaths involved opioid abuse.”
