Opioid overdose deaths in the U.S. have dropped to their lowest levels since 2020, with new CDC estimates showing just over 60,650 lives lost between June 2023 and June 2024—an 18% decrease from the previous year. While this is a hopeful trend, the real story might be far more sobering.
On this episode of Grieving Out Loud, we delve into the hidden truths of the opioid epidemic with the founder of Truth Pharm. She argues that the actual number of overdose deaths could be three times what’s reported. But she’s not just exposing the gaps—she’s fighting for justice. From holding pharmaceutical companies accountable to advocating for meaningful support for those battling substance use disorder, her mission is a beacon of hope in the face of devastating loss. She’s also launched Trail of Truth, a yearly event in Washington, D.C., where families can honor loved ones lost to substance use. You can find more details, along with pictures from the event, at emilyshope.charity.
Join us on this episode as we uncover the deeper realities behind the numbers and spotlight the relentless fight to save lives.
