Research notes
US-AR. Discovered 2026-10-22 for #17. Borrows DEA's 'One Pill Can Kill' name; a training-and-kit program rather than a paid ad campaign. Settlement funding per the AG release: 'Using state opioid settlement funds, I am providing harm-prevention kits'. No agency credited. No ads found: the AG YouTube channel (@AGTimGriffin) holds only news-segment uploads and livestreams of campus launches, plus an unattributed 2026 short 'Know the Danger of Illicit Opioids. Be Ready to Act.' (youtube jI8VRve5QkA) that may belong here. Related AG-backed effort: Coaches vs. Overdoses Week in Arkansas high schools (August 2026), logged in state-campaigns only.
