Project Inform was an organization dedicated to national HIV and hepatitis C advocacy. In 2017, Project Inform’s Director of Federal and State Affairs was interested in convening a summit to focus on the opioid crisis and related public health issues in the rural northern counties of California. The objectives of the summit were to encourage providers in the region to share best practices, network, and make recommendations about how to respond to the opioid crisis.
Facente Consulting was hired to lead the development of the summit agenda and planning logistics. We also facilitated the two-day summit, which was attended by more than 100 people, in Santa Rosa, California. With the help of a subcontractor, the summit was recorded and edited into a package for all summit participants.
