What is Project Opioid South Florida?
Project Opioid South Florida is part of a statewide initiative funded by the Florida Blue Foundation to drastically reduce the number of opioid-related fatalities by bringing together business, faith, and philanthropic leaders in key markets throughout Florida. Project Opioid initiatives have been launched in Central Florida, Jacksonville, Tampa Bay, and South Florida.
The mission of Project Opioid South Florida is to gather and educate influential community leaders across all sectors: business, faith, nonprofit, and law enforcement sectors to create awareness and implement strategies among the business community to stop the growing opioid crisis in South Florida County.
The South Florida Opioid Crisis
Criminal drug networks mass-produce fake pills and sell them online as legitimate prescription pills. Fake prescription pills are easily accessible and often sold on social media and e-commerce platforms, making them available to anyone with a smartphone, including minors.
