CORA (Combating Overdoses in Rural Areas)

Are you interested in combating the opioid epidemic? Would you like an in-person experience in public health interventions? Have you personally been affected by the opioid epidemic and want to make a difference? Do you want to help others?

If you said yes to any of these questions, consider joining CORA (Combating Overdoses in Rural Areas), a new UMD student organization with the mission of fighting the opioid crisis in rural areas with education, overdose response training, technology, and advocacy. CORA action teams will develop educational modules on opioid use during the semester and travel to rural counties in Maryland to present them during break.

We are looking for members as well as executive board members. Our member applications are rolling, but if you are interested in exec board, please apply here by July 31st: ter.ps/cora
