    Conversations: Kelly Bowers

    Send us a text On this episode, we're confronting a crisis that has become a defining tragedy of our time: the fentanyl epidemic. While this deadly synthetic opioid is claiming lives across the entire country, its impact has been especially devastating right here in our own backyard, the Bay Area.  From the streets of San Francisco to the suburbs of the East Bay, this powerful and often secretly-laced drug is tearing families apart and overwhelming communities. It's a crisis that has evolved rapidly, driven by cheap, illicitly manufactured fentanyl that is up to 100 times more potent than morphine.  In this episode, we'll explore this further and how the Bay Area became an epicenter for this public health emergency and what's being done to fight back. 🎙️ Kelly Bowers is out guest. Dr. Kelly Bowers President & CEO, Three Valleys Community Foundation  Dr. Kelly Bowers leads Three Valleys Community Foundation (3VCF), a place-based philanthropic organization serving California’s Tri-Valley and greater East Bay region. As President and CEO, she oversees a growing portfolio of local grantmaking, directing millions of dollars annually to nonprofit organizations addressing urgent community priorities—ranging from mental health and opioid crisis mitigation to educational equity, environmental resilience, health access, and the preservation of local journalism.  A lifelong educator and former Superintendent of the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District, Dr. Bowers brings more than three decades of public service experience and a passion for engaging a diverse constituency in community-driven solutions. She has been honored with awards such as the California Education Champions Award and the CSU East Bay Distinguished Alumna Award for her commitment to driving and implementing meaningful, measurable change.
