Nine of the 30 agencies considered to be the most critical when it comes to the Fentanyl epidemic presented reports to the task force. After all the presentations, the task force members identified three main areas where it could impact the crisis, including education of the public, targeting school-age children, the business community, and underrepresented populations.

The task force will meet monthly to discuss progress and will provide an update on its work before the beginning of the new year.
