Want to be involved with advocacy, Narcan builds, or attend community conversations around substance misuse?
The Anchorage Community Opioid Response Network (ACORN) meets monthly and is made up of professionals and community members who want Anchorage to be a safer place to live with reducing drug overdoses by using resources, data, and policies to enact change in our city. This taskforce is funded by opioid settlement funds over 18 years, so we hope to make some long term positive changes in Anchorage.
