Take the Pledge

Never take a random pill

I will only take pills prescribed to me by my own doctor.

Spread the word

I will tell my friends who may be experimenting, recreationally using, or struggling with substances about the dangers of fake pills.

Find alternatives

I will explore healthier ways to cope with my pain, stress or anxiety.

Be available

I will be honest with myself and supportive of others when speaking of mental health and substance use.
