Who should attend?
This forum will provide an opportunity for school staff, treatment professionals, pharmacists, medical providers, criminal justice agencies, public health officials, law enforcement, and any other community members interested in this prevention.
Why?
To have a healthy dialogue about prescription drug practices, addiction and treatment as well as prevention efforts. We will discuss trends and ways in which law enforcement is working to be a part of the solution and look at ways to fight this crime in the future. Click here for the day's agenda.
