Dispelling Stigma
Opioid addiction stigma needs to change. On this episode of Through the Trees, Dr. Fehling talks with CeDAR’s Blair Hubbard about her work with state and national policy campaigns to improve patient access to treatment.
Cannabis Complexity
The topic of cannabis is a big one. Issues of legalization, medicalization and complex research are important parts of this discussion. How does this look behind the scenes? For this episode of Through the Trees, I sit down with Dr. Christian Hopfer, a psychiatrist and premier researcher for the University of Colorado. We talk about twin-based research, harm vs beneficial evidence with marijuana, and public health needs for greater guidance for the population.
Cultivating a Recovery Community
Over the past two years, CeDAR has built a vibrant alumni community. Our Alumni Coordinator, Meghan White, spearheads this effort. On this episode of Through the Trees, we sit down with Meghan to learn about growing a recovery community. Lisa Peretti, an alumni who maintains an active presence in this community, also joins us. We explore what makes this program flourish, now with a membership of over 1,700 individuals.
