A Straightforward Look at Medications to Treat Opioid Use Disorders
Tracking # 20-1340140
Course overview
This interactive session is designed for nonmedical and medical professionals who want to better understand the medications used to treat opioid use disorder (OUD). Whether you work in recovery support, housing, or case management, or just want to learn more, this course breaks down the science in a simple, approachable way--no medical degree required. Together, we'll explore how these medications work, why they matter, and how understanding them can help reduce stigma and support long-term recovery. The goal?
