Community Corner : Jaydynn’s Light

Is Trying Worth Dying! Raising Fentanyl Awareness

This week on Community Corner, hosts SugaBear and LaMolly welcomed Brendan and Kim Hogan, the founders of Jaydynn’s Light, an organization committed to raising awareness about the dangers of fentanyl. The Hogans started Jaydynn’s Light after experiencing an unimaginable loss in July 2021 when their daughter, Jaydynn, unknowingly ingested a pill laced with fentanyl. This tragic event spurred them into action, leading them to create an organization that educates the public about the deadly risks associated with this potent drug, which has claimed far too many lives.

During their conversation, Brendan and Kim shared their personal story and the mission of Jaydynn’s Light. They spoke passionately about the importance of spreading awareness and educating both young people and parents about the dangers lurking in what might seem like harmless pills. Through their advocacy, they hope to prevent other families from enduring the same heartbreak. The episode serves as a poignant reminder of the real and growing threat of fentanyl in our communities and underscores the need for ongoing education and vigilance.
