Substance Use and Overdose Awareness: A Public Health Perspective


In this episode of This Is Public Health, brought to you by the Illinois Department of Public Health, we tackle the urgent issues of overdose awareness, substance use, and harm reduction. With opioid-related overdoses on the rise, it's more important than ever to understand the tools and strategies that can save lives and support those struggling with substance use.

We're joined by experts:

Whether you're a healthcare professional, policy maker, or simply concerned about the well-being of your community, this episode provides a comprehensive look at how we can all play a part in addressing this public health crisis.
