More About Chris Dider:
In Dec. 2020, Chris discovered his youngest child, Zachary in the privacy of his room no longer alive after Zach consumed what was thought was a legitimate and harmless prescription pill. Instead, Zach had unknowingly ingested a fake pill made of illicit fentanyl and died at the age of 17 as a high school senior. Zach had no history of recreational drug use or struggled with depression or anxiety.
Zach was a self-taught musician, straight-A student, multi-sport athlete, lead role in a HS Musical, and was active with Scouting and community service. His giving nature and infectious smile will always be missed. Since his passing, Zach was accepted into five U.C.s, including UCLA.
Chris is working tirelessly in his advocacy to help bring needed awareness and education of the dangers of illicit synthetics in an effort to save lives. He serves as an executive board member for Victims of Illicit Drugs: https://stopthevoid.org
