Week 1 Assignment: Assessing the Opioid Crisis in the United States Paper

 

Before we can begin to help Anytown with its opioid crisis, we need to understand how we got to this point as a nation.

Once we understand the background and causes, we can then apply that knowledge to Anytown.

In your paper, address the following:

  1. How widespread is this crisis? What are the national statistics on opioid use?
  2. Using research data, determine the states and populations most affected and the reasons for the rise of this crisis.
  3. How does the national data on opioid use compare to data from your own city? If there are any differences, what can they be attributed to?
  4. Based on your understanding thus far, what could have attributed to the rise of opioid addiction in Anytown?
