MORE THAN 2,000 ARIZONANS LOST THEIR LIVES TO OPIOID OVERDOSES IN 2021, AND FENTANYL WAS THE DRUG THAT WAS MOST REPORTED IN THESE DEATHS. EACH SUCCESSFUL FENTANYL DRUG BUST THAT YCSO CONDUCTS CONFIRMS THESE STATISTICS.

THERE ARE RESOURCES THAT CAN HELP TO KEEP YOURSELF AND YOUR COMMUNITY SAFE.
• OPIOID ASSISTANCE AND REFERRAL LINE - A FREE RESOURCE FOR MEDICAL PROVIDERS AND PATIENTS.
• NALOXONE PRESCRIPTIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE AT PHARMACIES.
• FENTANYL TEST STRIPS CAN BE ACQUIRED FROM THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES IF YOU OR YOUR SOMEONE ELSE ARE AT RISK OF EXPOSURE.

THE ‘OPIOID OVERDOSES SURVEILLANCE REPORT, 2020-2021’ SHOWS FENTANYL’S PREVALENCE AND IT’S EFFECTS ACROSS ARIZONA. FORTUNATELY, FENTANYL IMPACTS OTHER COUNTIES MORESO THAN YAVAPAI COUNTY.

THE CAMPAIGN “ONE PILL CAN KILL” WILL LIKELY REMAIN VERY RELEVANT IN THE FUTURE.
