Description

Drugs and drug use is changing at a rapid pace. Trying to keep up with the newest trends and what is emerging can be difficult.

This workshop will look at current and emerging trends of drugs (Opioids), as well as new ways some of the “old” substances are being used. We will be defining terms, talking about the drugs, effects, slang/street names, and how they are used. We will include over-the-counter drugs that are also being misused. We will also discuss and look at resources for trending drugs.
