Heroin epidemic focus of program

“Silence Equals Death: How the Heroin Epidemic is Driving Change in Perception, Treatment, and the Law” is the title of a program and panel discussion at WMU Cooley Law School in Auburn Hills on Friday, Jan. 30 from 6-9 p.m.

The program will feature a screening of the film “The Anonymous People,” an acclaimed documentary about the 23.5 million Americans in long-term recovery and the movement that is changing the way addiction is perceived and treated.

The film will be followed by a panel discussion featuring Judge Jodi Debbrecht Switalski of the 51st District Sobriety Court and co-founder of RADEO (Regional Anti-Drug Education & Outreach); Andre Johnson, president and CEO of the Detroit Recovery Project; Erica Clute, contract management specialist for Meridian Health and regional chairperson of Families Against Narcotics; John Gilbreath, retired administrative law judge for the State of Michigan and an adjunct professor at Cooley; and panel moderator Lauren Rousseau, professor at Cooley and board member of Home of New Vision.

The program is free, but space is limited. To reserve a seat, e-mail Rousseau at Rousseal@cooley.edu.
