Song for Charlie's The New Drug Talk

These days, any pill not from a doctor or pharmacy could be a fake made with fentanyl or other dangerous chemicals—and the new drug landscape is changing so fast that most parents don't have the information they need to talk to their kids about it—The New Drug Talk gives you that information. The New Drug Talk provides you with the facts, the framework and the confidence to have the conversations that could protect your child's life. Based on the acclaimed film by Song for Charlie, this five-episode audio series walks parents and caregivers through what every family needs to know about fake prescription pills made with fentanyl and other dangerous chemicals. You'll hear the real story of Charlie Ternan, whose parents turned their family's loss into a nationwide education and prevention movement. Then, guided by experts and evidence-based strategies, you'll learn how fentanyl and other synthetic chemicals have changed the drug supply, why young people are at particular risk, and how to start age-appropriate conversations with your kids, even when it feels uncomfortable. The series closes with a bonus episode designed for families to listen to together. Whether your child is in middle school, high school or heading off to college, The New Drug Talk meets you where you are with practical, judgment-free guidance rooted in the "What to Know, What to Say, What to Do" framework. Because the old drug talk doesn't work anymore—and the new one could be the most important conversation you ever start. The New Drug Talk is produced by Song for Charlie with support from the California Department of Health Care Services.
