Extension project focuses on education, outreach to address opioid crisis
As drug overdoses linked to opioids continue to rise, rural communities in particular struggle to control the epidemic.

University of Georgia Cooperative Extension is working with rural communities to address the issue, thanks in part to a three-year $350,000 Rural Health and Safety Education grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The October sale, like the rearing of the plants from seedling plugs donated by green industry partners, was entirely student-planned and implemented.
