The ongoing fentanyl crisis has taken another alarming turn with the discovery of a new industrial chemical, BTMPS, found in illicit fentanyl supplies. A recent investigation uncovered that in many cases, the quantity of BTMPS exceeded that of fentanyl itself. This raises serious concerns about the health risks associated with using illicit substances, as the effects of BTMPS on the human body remain largely unknown.
At Lantern Residences, we are on a mission to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals seeking a fresh start. Today, we are thrilled to announce a major step forward in that mission—our transitional living program is growing, and we’re getting ready to open 8 new houses in Charleston, South Carolina!
