Meet the pastor using her pulpit to share Narcan with her congregation and community, part of a mission to alert suburban families and reframe coverage of the fentanyl crisis. 

Dont call it an overdose crisis .. call it a poisoning epidemic. 

This is what a number of community advocates and members of law enforcement are saying after a rise in cases where children are getting access to drugs online. Instead of the legitimate medication they think they are buying to treat anxiety, they are getting poisoned by the deadly street drug fentanyl

New research reveals youth are going online to self-diagnose mental health issues, and some are buying what's advertised as medicines is the deadly street drug fentanyl.

ONE NATION UNDER GOD host Adrienne Bankert speaks to the pastor who is now urging her congregation and community, to all carry Narcan as well as an advocate who speaks to families in the suburbs, rural neighborhoods and inner city to empower families to be aware of the danger and change the way we all talk about the crisis.
