Substance misuse is on the rise among youth and the effects are very detrimental to their well-being. States such as Texas, California, and Oregon have succeeded to legally mandate fentanyl awareness education in schools. To help address this important issue, we created a theory-based fentanyl substance misuse lesson for grades 6-8 in collaboration with our research partners at the UTHealth Houston School of Public Health.
This resource is available for stand-alone purchase as part of our K-12 substance misuse unit, or Health Ed Journeys curriculum that also includes a full range of health education topics such as nutrition education, safety, and mental health. Health Ed Journeys supports requirements for Tucker’s Law, which went into effect in Texas.
We invite you to learn more about our available options to best meet your needs.
