CDC data reveals a nearly 27% decline in drug overdose deaths from 2023 to 2024 โ€“ the most significant drop in decades. This reduction brings the annual death toll to its lowest level since 2019. While this is a step forward, the overdose crisis remains a critical public health issue.

Synthetic opioids, primarily illicitly manufactured fentanyl, continue to be the leading contributors to overdose deaths.

Polysubstance use, involving multiple substances, has been a significant factor in overdose fatalities.

Let's continue to support programs that save lives and work together to combat the overdose epidemic.

We've been honored to work with Brownell Elementary School this past school year, alongside Lincoln Transportation and Utilities, LPS Sustainability and other partners. Together, the team led many projects promoting safe walking and biking for students and families, including a Bike to School Day event, safety education, a student art contest and more.

With their newfound walking and biking safety skills, we hope students can continue to be active and safe this summer and into the next school year! ๐Ÿ™‚
