Opioid Use Disorder Toolkit for Faith-Based Community Leaders
Williamsburg/Warrenton, VA
SpiritWorks Foundation is pleased to announce the release of The Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Toolkit for Faith-Based Community Leaders and Organizations. The Toolkit arose from a request to the Opioid Response Network (ORN) from SpiritWorks Foundation to develop a comprehensive toolkit to better assist members and their families struggling with Opioid Use Disorder.
The OUD Toolkit provides up to do date science-based information, resources, and action steps to support faith-based leaders in meeting the needs of their churches, parishes, congregations, members, and communities related to the opioid crisis and OUD. Says the Rev. Lauren McDonald, Director of SpiritWorks Foundation Spiritual and Community Programming, "we are thrilled to have played a small role in seeing this toolkit come to fruition for the faith community and faith leaders. It will allow us to do our part in changing the course of the epidemic in our churches, and communities".
SpiritWorks Foundation is especially indebted to Adrian Wicker for her role in coordinating our request and seeing it through to the end. We couldn't be more pleased with the final product.
