Understanding the Connection Between Suicide, Opioid Misuse and Opioid Overdose

Wednesday, April 22, 2020

2 - 3 p.m. EDT

In this webinar, we will describe the relationship between opioid abuse, opioid use disorder, and suicidality. We will identify resources for accessing state- and community-level data on suicidal behaviors, opioid abuse, and overdose and explore limitations in our data. We will identify populations at increased risk for overdose and suicide death and factors that contribute to these risks. Implications for prevention will be discussed.
