More than 50 people met at the Wilmington Municipal Building in February 2018 to discuss the impact opioids have had on their community. Among the group were medical professionals, first-responders, parents who have lost children to opioid addiction, and people in recovery. The community was ready to work together, and take ownership to develop collaborative solutions, which was clear through their discussions on supporting people in recovery and creating coalitions to tackle the crisis.
