Join Us in February & March 2021 for this special virtual event!

In conjunction with Anne Arundel County, we present a three-part anti-stigma training series on Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) to address and debunk popular beliefs and myths around opioid prescribing. MOUD has previously referred to as medication-assisted treatment (MAT).

We would like to welcome MOUD prescribers, nurse practitioners, case managers, social workers, and other providers in hopes to increase the number of active MOUD prescribers and increase the knowledge, understanding, and value of MOUD treatment.
