Today, the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office pauses for the National Day of Prayer. We pray for unity, peace, and guidance for our community, our county leaders, and all who serve. Sheriff Alan Norman and the CCSO team are grateful for the continued support and prayers offered for our deputies, staff, and the citizens of Cleveland County.
Today, Wednesday, April 29th, is National Fentanyl Awareness Day.
The Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office is taking this day to help raise awareness about the dangers of fentanyl and the lives it continues to impact nationwide. Fentanyl is an extremely potent synthetic opioid, and even a tiny amount can be deadly. It is often found in counterfeit pills or mixed with other substances without the user’s knowledge.
Please take time today to talk with your family, friends, and young people about the risks.
Education and awareness save lives.
If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, resources are available. You can reach local support services or call 988 for immediate help.
Together, we can protect our community.
