During Public Health Week, the Sudbury Board of Health would like to raise awareness for this rapidly growing problem in our communities. Opioid-related deaths in Massachusetts have risen substantially over time, and they jumped nearly 50 percent in 2013, from 668 to 978 (Boston Globe). Attached is information to keep your family safe and educational opportunities sponsored in our communities as well as state and federal resources on Opioid Addiction.
