Title: Harmonization: A block party on the corner of healing and collaboration, where everyone has a seat at the table
Theme: Substance use and overdose prevention is a syndemic issue that requires us to work across inter-related fields, including psychological health, trauma, disability, suicide, and violence. To effectively serve our community and clients, collaboration across programs, services, and funding sources is crucial, and a multidisciplinary approach is essential to address core issues and provide comprehensive, holistic services for individuals' needs.
You are invited to join us for the 2025 Southern Nevada Substance Misuse and Overdose Prevention Summit, Harmonization: A block party on the corner of healing and collaboration, where everyone has a seat at the table. During this event, engage in thought-provoking discussions, participate in interactive workshops, and gain invaluable insights into how we all bring valuable ideas, perspectives, and knowledge to this work. By working together, we can reduce substance use and ultimately end overdose, fostering a healthier and safer community for all.
