U.P. Opioid Forum Today

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and the Michigan Opioids Task Force will host a virtual town hall today to learn more about how the opioid epidemic has impacted the Upper Peninsula.

The town hall will run from 4:00 to 5:30. Officials will share the latest strategy to turn the tide on the crisis, seek feedback from the public and host a Q-and-A about the crisis response. Information gathered during the town hall will help the state develop an appropriate crisis response.

Among the things organizers want to know…
• How has the opioid epidemic affected you, your family or your community?
 • What services, programs or policies would you recommend to help address the crisis?
 • How can the state help combat stigma and change the narrative around opioid use disorder?
