State and regional business and government agencies have launched initiatives to try and stem the wave of abuse hitting the state. Has opioid abuse affected your business? Yes. We've had employees who have struggled with addiction.
Yes. It is a public health issue impacting the region's economy and social fabric.
No. We are insulated from those problems.
No. Drug abuse is a long-standing issue and the response to opioids is an overreaction.
