Uncovering Substance Use Patterns Among Farmers
August 28 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Join us for an eye-opening program that explores emerging research on substance use behaviors among farmers—patterns that differ in significant ways from those of the general population. Participants will gain insight into how substance use varies by role within the agricultural workforce and learn about early recommendations for public health strategies aimed at reducing the effects of substance misuse in this vital sector. The session will also highlight critical areas for future research to better understand and support the health and well-being of farm communities.
