Join us for our next ROC Talk: A Whole-System Approach to Substance Use Harms: Prevention, Recovery, and Belonging with Chase Simms.

What if preventing substance use harms is less about changing individuals and more about shaping the environments in which people live, learn, and connect?

In this thought-provoking session, Chase will explore the social and commercial determinants of health, evidence-informed prevention strategies, and how communities can reduce stigma while supporting diverse pathways to recovery and belonging.
