The Opioid Crisis in Chicago

To understand the opioid crisis in Anytown, let’s examine the opioid crisis in another town.

In your analysis:

  1. Select a city (preferably the one in which you reside or one nearby) and describe the state of the opioid crisis there. Which specific populations are vulnerable to the crisis, and how and why has the crisis impacted them?
  2. Describe the research studies available on the opioid crisis in the city you chose: types, design, strengths, and weaknesses.
  3. What information can you apply to Anytown and why? How can another city provide guidance?

The analysis should be 3–4 pages, excluding title and references pages. Use current APA formatting to style your paper and to cite your sources. Integrate a minimum of three scholarly sources into the paragraphs of your paper. Use internal citations pointing to evidence in the literature and supporting your ideas. You will need to include a reference page.
