Time: 12PM CST / 6PM London

In partnership with ECORN-MO, the Opioid Response Network, and the ATTC, the Addiction Policy Forum (APF) is hosting a webinar focused on newly developed multilanguage resources to support underserved communities impacted by the opioid crisis. During this session, participants will explore innovative tools and materials that have been translated to reach a broader audience, helping to bridge gaps in communication and care.

The webinar will highlight the importance of accessibility in opioid crisis interventions and provide insights on how these resources can be utilized to improve outcomes for non-English speaking populations disproportionately affected by substance use disorders.
