AAFP

Legislators need to better understand that family physicians play an important role in addressing the opioids crisis. To facilitate this, the AAFP has launched a storytelling project to learn about the challenges physicians face and hear recommendations for addressing the opioid crisis in their communities. .

Please share your story about how the impact the opiod crisis has had on your community. Participate in the storytelling project. The project runs through the end of August.

Additionally, the AAFP is launching a clinical survey to gather physicians’ commentaries detailing how the opioids crisis impacts patients and communities, and perspectives on ways to support patient care without adding unnecessary restrictions.
