The mission is to open dialogue, strengthen relationships, find solutions and execute change. The purpose of WSOS is to create a center-point of synergy between an eclectic array of disciplines and families, initiating relationships and dialogue, and creating a wave of change. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The opioid crisis, in <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> and nationally, has progressed to the point that we are co-hosting and presenting this summit out of necessity,&#8221; said CCAPP CEO <span class=\"xn-person\">Pete Nielsen<\/span>. &#8220;The cost of doing nothing is too high for us to ignore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>WSOS will unite leading addiction-medicine professionals and physicians; parent and public advocates; stakeholders who understand the dangers and losses associated with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD); distressed families who are, or and have been, afflicted by OUD; County and public health experts; law enforcement personnel; concerned legislators and policy makers; public and private resources; and family service organizations in order to promote learning, dialogue, and collaboration. <\/p>\n<p>Through the generous donations of our supporters, family scholarships have been made available for individuals and families who have been stricken by OUD. They must register at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/opioidsummit.us\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/opioidsummit.us\/<\/a> to attend the Summit at no cost. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every single person is affected by opioid addiction. Whether it&#8217;s the devastation of the individual, the trauma to their family, or the cost to communities and taxpayers, we all share the burden and can contribute to the solution,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Bruce Boardman<\/span>, CEO, Social Model Recovery Systems.\u00a0 &#8220;It will take us working together to remedy this epidemic.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. <span class=\"xn-person\">Donald J. Kurth<\/span>, Social Model Recovery Systems&#8217; Medical Director and a past president of the American Society of Addiction Medicine, &#8220;Far too many Americans have needlessly lost their lives to the opioid scourge.
