Be Careful What You Pass Down

Upcoming Events

The Gunnison Consortium has recently created a local documentary that highlights the struggles of addiction. This is a 29 minute film that features local professionals in this field as well as community members with lived experience. After the video, we will host a Q+A session to field any questions that may arise. Ultimately, our hope is that showing this video far and wide will act as a good first step towards humanizing addiction on a societal level. We are planning on holding two showings on June 24th – one from 12-1:30pm and one from 6-7:30pm. To register and for more information, please click here to be directed to the Virtual Community Event to Focus on Opioid Addiction.
