Susan Ossen

I am an elder that’s retired and working in the community now. I have family members that are struggling with fentanyl. I have friends and we have people in our community who are struggling and dying from fentanyl. And the work that I do with all of the people is we treat people as humans. Remember that they are your sons, your daughters, your children, sometimes your parents who are struggling with fentanyl. Remember to love them and as much as possible support them. And sometimes, you know, that means driving them to detox and helping them get into a place where they are ready for treatment and that we be supportive of them.
