Archived: St Cloud State Hosts Opioid Awareness Week

St. Cloud State University will be hosting a week of helping those with opioid addiction.

Spokesman Thaddeus Rybka says the SCSU Recovery Community is putting on Opioid Awareness Week in response to the opioid epidemic in the U-S. Opioid abuse has killed 402 Minnesotans in 2016 and continues to be a problem locally and nationally.

The awareness activities will all be held in Atwood Memorial Center and will start Monday, January 22 and run until Thursday, January 25.

Different activities include a discussion by the Addiction Recovery Dedication Board, a documentary about anonymous drug use, facts and myths about drug use, and several others throughout the week.
