Many of us commonly interact with clients, family members, friends, and other professionals who have questions about opioids and how to respond to the opioid crisis. A cross-divisional task force (APA Divisions 12, 28, and 50) developed the linked resources, published by APA, with input from many Division 50 members. Available on the Divison 12 website at https://www.div12.org/opioid-crisis-resource-sheets/, and the Division 50 website at https://addictionpsychology.org/resources/opioid-crisis-resource-sheets and https://addictionpsychology.org/addiction-psychology/assessment-treatment-resources.
Resources are available for those struggling with addiction and numerous effective treatments exist. Whether you are looking for help for yourself or a loved one, we encourage you to seek out help.
