Fentanyl and methamphetamine are having serious health impacts in our community.

What are these drugs, why are people using them, how are they impacting our community, and what can we do?  

Dr. Caleb Banta-Green, ADAI Research Professor and expert in substance use disorder, treatment and other interventions, and Dr. Amy Burns, a Spokane-based psychiatrist with expertise in addiction, will discuss:

  • available services and interventions to prevent serious health outcomes
  • how to support ongoing health and recovery — including ways in which family and friends can help support their loved one. 

A Q&A with Drs. Banta-Green and Burns will follow their presentation. THIS SESSION IS FREE!
