Addressing Drug Overdose Deaths: Strategies to Optimize Health, Wellness, and Recovery


Description
Drug overdose deaths have been rising precipitously over the past few years, with particularly devastating results among African Americans, Latinx people, and American Indians and Alaska Natives. One of the populations most affected by this crisis is people experiencing homelessness. This 90-minute webinar will offer important information about how communities can reduce overdose deaths among those experiencing homelessness by utilizing combined interventions of harm reduction, supportive housing, SUD treatment and recovery support that are integrated and culturally responsive. Recommendations for system- and provider-level stakeholders to build an integrated, best practice continuum of care will be offered.
