If you're interested in learning about the latest issues from the front lines of the opioid epidemic, you are invited to join us at the Turning Point Center of Chittenden County for "Community Connections: Speaker & Open House" on Thursday, April 20th, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. This is a free event open to the public. Space is limited so reservations through our website are required. Please RSVP at https://turningpointcentervt.org/events/community-connections-speaker-open-house/.

Our featured guest is Dr. Daniel Wolfson, who will discuss his experience in caring for patients with opioid use disorder in the Emergency Department of the UVM Medical Center, and the impacts of fentanyl and xylazine in our community. Recovery coaches who work at the Emergency Department will also be on hand to share their experience, and staff and Board members will be on hand to chat, answer questions and tour the facility.
