CBS News featured the story on its YouTube channel with an in- terview with The Language Conservancy9s Chief Executive Ofocer Wilhelm Meya. Like the endangered species list, The Language Conservancy has an endangered languages list. <In North America and Canada and Australia, unfortunately, it9s at the forefront of the wave of extinctions that we are experiencing,= Meya says. <In our lifetime we expect perhaps up to 90 percent of world9s languages, certainly in the U.S., those languages to become extinct.= The commonality in North America, Canada and Australia9s en- dangered languages is they can mostly be found in their Indigenous communities. The Language Conservancy works to support those under-resourced communities that speak languages on the verge of extinction. Meya discussed how his nonproot organization works to connect commu- nities with resources that can create language textbooks and dictio- naries to preserve the language, plus teacher trainings and apps that can help teach the language to new speakers. <These are languages that don9t have the resources, the literature, the support that is needed to continue moving forward without extraordinary help,= Meya concludes. <Young people want their lan- guage, young Native American people want the apps, the cartoon, all the bells and whistles that would be available for any other language.= You can watch the CBS interview at www.youtube.com/ watch?v=1-bmreD9ok8 or ond it linked in the Smoke Signals <Watch- list= playlist on our YouTube channel. þ 1860 1861 1919 1921 1925 1831 Job# 1778 1808 1900 1913 1920 1924 Accounting Clerk LPN Enrichment Coordinator Temporary Pool 3 3 UntilFilled SubstanceUseDisorderTherapist3 Position Title LPN- Great Circle Recovery - Portland LPN3 Milieu Safety Technician 3 - Great Circle Recovery - Portland Peer Support Specialist 3 Female 3 Great Circle Recovery - Salem SubstanceUseDisorderTherapist3 Great Circle Recovery - Salem LPN3 Great Circle Recovery - Salem Mental Health Counselor 3 Great Circle Recovery - Salem Grade Min.

It is 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine, making it a major contributor to the 150+ synthetic overdose deaths occurring every day. SITUATION In recent months, brightly colored fentanyl tablets, powder, and blocks that look like candy or sidewalk chalk have been trending nationally amongst our youth (see images below). These products, known as rainbow fentanyl, are targeted to increase addiction in young people and are often packaged in commercial product packaging (such as holiday candy). Due to their potency, very small amounts can cause damage to the brain, and lead to overdoses or overdose death. ACTION Naloxone saves lives by reversing opioid overdose. It is quick and easy to administer, with trainings available across the country. Communities, parents, and teachers working with youth should consider educating on the dangers of rainbow fentanyl and seek naloxone training to prevent overdose deaths.
