Description
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and opioid misuse have proliferated across the U.S. in the past decade – and Rural America has been particularly impacted. Effectively addressing the opioid epidemic and supporting recovery includes a holistic community approach with an essential shared foundation; safe, stable, affordable housing. The Housing Assistance Council will launch their new Rural Resource Guide: Affordable Housing and Recovery in Rural Communities, Federally Assisted Housing Opportunities for Residents with Substance Use Disorders and Opioid Use Disorders. Join us for a discussion about the intersection of affordable housing and recovery and gain first access to the new rural resource guide.
