We selected this unique population because students training in healthcare in our
state typically stay within our state and come from rural, underserved parishes. The
objective is to provide harm reduction education to at least 800 first responders-in-training
by September 30, 2026.
Faculty at the ULM College of Pharmacy and Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine,
Louisiana Campus are highly trained individuals in education who are passionate about
the opioid epidemic and are eager to bring awareness to underserved communities. The
number of people served will be 500 people in the first year, 750 people in the second
and third years, and 1000 people in the fourth year. Click here for a list of upcoming community events which we will be attending, as well as summary
reports of our progress thus far.
