In this podcast meant for all audiences, we answer: • Why is it so important to address the opioid crisis now? • Opioids have been around since the 1700s, but how did this become a crisis situation? • How do opioids work and why are they so addictive? • What are the resources available (from the federal government and others) to treat substance use concerns? • How has COVID-19 impacted opioid addiction in the U.S.? • What are some things people can do now if they are struggling with addiction, or know someone else who is?
