The Opioid Safety Coalitions Network (OSCN) links community coalitions across California to focus on preventing opioid overdose deaths. In fall 2016, two statewide convenings brought hundreds of people together to share successes, strategies, and challenges in confronting the ongoing epidemic.

Naloxone cuts opioid-related ED visits in half, and community availability cuts overdose deaths. Learn about increasing access to naloxone through co-prescribing, community distribution, and pharmacy furnishing.

Targeted messages can inform, educate, and create impact. This webinar will offer practical tools and strategies — including from your peer coalitions — for communicating to a range of key audiences.

Opioid addiction is a chronic disease of the brain with biological, psychological, social, and spiritual components. Understanding the biology of addiction changes how we treat the disease.

CURES 2.0 is a database of controlled substance prescriptions dispensed in California. Hear how clinicians can register, use the alerts and other features, and manage patient information received.

Buprenorphine's pharmacology makes it much less likely to cause overdose deaths than similar painkillers. In this webinar, pain specialist Dr. Howard Kornfeld will discuss the benefits of using buprenorphine for patients whose opioid use puts them at risk.

Your coalition can use data to help people understand the opioid epidemic and to learn about solutions. LiveStories software makes it easy to build charts and maps, combining them with storytelling to inspire change. Join a two-part training.
