Currently there is a crisis, an epidemic of OxyContin (OC) and heroin use in

Massachusetts!



Most of the kids are between 17-26 years old…



…some start in high school, others have started in college



The rules have changed in society today. Heroin can be snorted and is 80-90% pure

Young people do not realize they will become addicted even by

just experimenting



Drug addiction normally begins with crushed up OxyContin and a

bad choice…



…even if teens have been warned all their lives by their

parents about drug use



It doesn't matter where you live…
