In partnership with the Youth Leadership Institute (yli), the Health Department launched a youth opioid awareness campaign. This project provided young people an opportunity to develop skills through youth-led storytelling in multimedia workshops that will encourage youth engagement, raise awareness about the opioid epidemic, and increase access to educational materials about opioid overdose prevention techniques.
