In recognition of World Mental Health Day, observed on October 10th, Chicago Behavioral Hospital has partnered with MaineStay Youth & Family Services, the Park Ridge Opioid Advisory Group, and the Park Ridge Community Health Commission to offer a free webinar entitled “Opioid Crisis and the Pandemic”. This presentation will include a panel of local experts who will discuss topics related to the use and misuse of opioids before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Opioid use and overdose deaths continue to rise during the pandemic. Learn about the nature of addiction, the etiology of opioid misuse, contributing factors, and available treatment options.
