About this Event

There has been a lot of talk in the Burlington area recently about Overdose Prevention Centers. But what exactly is an OPC? What would Burlington’s OPC offer? Why Burlington? What are the anticipated community impacts of an OPC? As a parent, what do I need to know about and should I be concerned? Join Dad Guild and Bella Fearn of VT Harm Reduction Advocates for a Workshop & Town Hall event to learn more about Overdoes Prevention Centers and the impact they have on communities. Bella will explain how OPCs work, share some data, and create an opportunity for caregivers to ask questions and voice their thoughts. This learning opportunity on Wednesday, January 28th from 7pm-8:30pm is available to all caregivers in the community.
