Well produced podcast and worth a listen. The impact of the opioid epidemic touches all parts of society and hearing voices from the front lines is really informative and compelling.

An interesting take on treatment of opioid addiction and recovery . I was not aware of all the issues involved with the youngest victims of the opioid crisis and helping families recover.

Podcasts such as this are necessary tools in fighting the battle against the very stigmatized world of substance use disorder. The guests on the show all work on the front lines against the opioid epidemic, in one way or another, and so are experts on the subject matter at hand. This podcast is helping dispel common myths and assumptions surrounding this epidemic, therefore helping cut through the noise to provide potential solutions and ways forward. The landscape of the epidemic here is painted in a nuanced light, illustrating just how many factors have led us to where we stand today, from mental health crises, gaps in health care systems, ease of access and lack of sufficient education in regard to such damaging substances, and so much more, all discussed herein. This podcast is a must listen, especially if interested in learning how you can help fight the opioid epidemic, or if simply interested in cultivating a better understanding of this complex and devastating issue.

Thanks for compiling details of what is happening with opioid-education and legislative in different parts of the country. It was very insightful to find out how prevalent drug issues are, and to learn of some actions to be taken. This shifted my paradigm on the subject.
