Overdose coalitions across California are harnessing wide-ranging data related to overdose, not only to inform coalition decision-making but also to help make a persuasive case to audiences they need to reach, such as schools, parents, elected officials, and health care providers.
During this webinar, we’ll take a look at the presentations, fact sheets, and data stories that coalitions have built to educate community members about overdose and to advocate for supportive policies. The session will be led by Andy Krackov. Through his data storytelling consultancy, Hillcrest Advisory, Andy has worked with more than a dozen coalitions affiliated with COPN. Andy will share his top five tips regarding communicating overdose data and spotlight COPN’s recently launched measurement guide, which is targeted toward the needs of coalitions statewide.
