@DrugPolicyNerds A7: Free naloxone in schools and teen centers. Accurate education about how to stay safe mandated in schools. Well-funded, easy access to counseling and voluntary medical treatment for substance use disorders. #TeenODSpike

[UCLA HETSS Research Theme @uclahetss]

@DrugPolicyNerds A7: Policies should involve affected teens in planning. Following federal HIV funding that mandates HIV affected people to funding and program decisions, teens in overdose impacted communities should be represented in decision-making #TeenODSpike
