Substance Abuse: Stigma Reduction

A Response to the Drug Overdose Crisis in the East Shore District

Please join us for a discussion of the ongoing opioid crisis and the biology of addiction. Learn how our community can reduce the risks of dying from drug overdoses, help get people into treatment, and improve quality of life.

We will be discussing the use of Narcan and medicated assisted treatments for recovery.

Free Narcan training will be available immediately following the presentation.

Presented by Jon Marquis, Harm Reduction Specialist of the East Shore District Health Department
