Join us for an evidence and experience-informed discussion about opioids and other drugs in pregnancy, hosted at @ThunderbirdWPG 👏🏻👏🏻

Stigma surrounding pregnancy and substance use propagates deeply rooted shame in individuals who are already facing multiple barriers. Pilot projects such as this one will help us to gain evidence to inform future programs.
