The Idaho Office of Drug Policy (ODP) is working with JBS International to develop a statewide five-year strategic plan that will guide ODP’s work over the next five years. As part of the planning process, we will conduct seven regional stakeholder sessions with prevention stakeholders in all seven regions of the state to collect input and insights around the substance use problems in Idaho.

A couple of logistical notes:

The meeting will be very interactive, so please plan to use your webcam and be in a quiet place so you can fully participate. Please invite those in your region who you feel would have valuable input as we develop a five-year plan that addresses the prevention of SUD in our state!
