Focus group participants needed

From: Department of Psychology

Researchers are interested in listening to community members who have experienced substance use problems. We want to learn more about the needs and strengths of the community regarding substance use prevention. To help us learn more, we are inviting individuals aged 18-25 years old who live in Southwest Virginia and are willing to share their ideas to engage in 1.5 hour focus groups. Participants will be compensated with a $75 Amazon gift card. Additionally, participants will have the option to stay after the focus group to receive the REVIVE! Overdose Response Training to learn how to identify an overdose and how to respond, including administration of Narcan.
