Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin to Visit CBC for “One Pill Can Kill” Initiative

 Central Baptist College (CBC) will host Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin on Monday, Oct. 13, for a campus event highlighting the One Pill Can Kill initiative, a statewide effort to raise awareness about the dangers of counterfeit pills and the risks of illicit fentanyl.

The visit will include a press conference at 10:00 a.m. in the Mabee Student Services Complex Community Room on the CBC campus. It will be followed by an awareness and response training from 12:00–1:00 p.m. (doors open at 11:30 a.m.). CBC students, faculty, and staff—as well as community partners—are invited to attend.

“CBC is committed to the well-being of our students and our community,” said Dr. Jeremy Langley, president of Central Baptist College. “We appreciate Attorney General Griffin’s leadership on this critical issue and are honored to host this important conversation and training on our campus.”

“CBC’s enthusiasm to participate in One Pill Can Kill shows that this program is needed not only on large, sprawling campuses, but also in smaller environments. The dangers of fentanyl and opioids exist everywhere, and even where most students are unlikely to try illicit drugs, it is invaluable to have the knowledge and awareness that can save the life of a friend, family member, or even a stranger,” said Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin.

One Pill Can Kill is a public awareness initiative emphasizing the prevalence of counterfeit pills and the life-threatening risks associated with illicit fentanyl. The campaign encourages education, prevention, and prompt response to suspected overdoses.

Media are asked to check in at the Community Room entrance. On-campus parking will be available in adjacent visitor lots; signage and CBC personnel will direct guests.
