The Substance Use Family Summit is an opportunity for families and community members to hear from professionals in the substance use field, parents, and peers on topics such as current drug trends, overdose prevention, grief and loss, and recovery, according to a news release.
Organizers ask that those interested in attending register by April 15 at cityofrochester.gov/substancesummit. They add that all registered participants will receive lunch and a T-shirt.
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration New York Division and Facing Fentanyl are also partners in the event.
