Operation Resolve: Empowering Employers in the Opioid Battle

We're battling the folks who want to profit on this devastating epidemic. And what's so vitally important is that the employers, the employees, our community, knows how to find out which resources are real, which ones are reputable, which ones are certified by The State Department, which ones are endorsed by the ADAMHS system, so that they can navigate who might be looking to make a profit on the illness versus who really wants to offer help.

Imagine facing the opioid crisis not just in homes and streets, but also in workplaces. In this episode, Greg sits down with Kimberly Fraser, Executive Director of the Lake County Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services (ADAMHS) Board, and Jessie Baginski, President/CEO of Leadership Lake County. Both have personal stakes in the fight against opioid addiction and are leading a groundbreaking initiative called Operation Resolve.

This program aims to equip employers with the tools and knowledge to support their workforce in the battle against opioid abuse. Through educational resources and a dedicated helpline, Operation Resolve provides crucial information on drug abuse, addiction, and available help. The initiative partners with ADAMHS to ensure access to certified and reputable resources. By involving employers, the program extends its reach, making workplaces part of the solution.

Whether you're an employer looking to support your team or someone affected by opioid addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and practical steps to take action.
