You can help end the fight against addiction.
Rural Addiction Prevention (RAP) is looking for community organizations, schools, first responders, criminal courts, healthcare providers, municipal leaders, and county leaders in rural counties to help in the fight against substance use disorder (SUD). SUD is a medical condition that can be prevented when possible, screened for, identified, and treated. A community wide effort can dramatically affect the harmful results of SUD within a rural community and lead to better outcomes for all affected by this disease.
