Gen Z Is Making Safer, Smarter Choices Around Substance Use
Gen Z’s intentional and informed approach to life is deeply aligned with their relationship with substance use - and how they aim to create safer environments.
In this episode, Meghan Grace sits down with Maddie Ward, Chief Operating Officer of End Overdose, to explore how Gen Z’s relationship with substance use is reshaping overdose prevention through peer-led education and advocacy.
In this episode, we explore:
Why substance use is declining among Gen Z, yet overdose risks remain high.
How peer-to-peer education creates safer, more open conversations about substance use.
What it means to lead authentically as a Gen Z changemaker.
The importance of community, connection, and small actions that multiply into real change.
This conversation offers practical wisdom and hope for how we can all play a role in supporting Gen Z’s relationship to substance use and preventing overdose.
