The Opioid Initiative:
Addressing the Opioid Endemic
This initiative is the research arm of the Center for Wellness and Recovery, based
at the OSU Center for Health Sciences (OSU-CHS) in Tulsa. Led by researchers spanning
multiple disciplines at OSU-Stillwater, OSU-Tulsa, and OSU-CHS, this initiative focuses
on understanding the causes, effects and effective interventions for opioid addiction
— a major public health crisis in Oklahoma and across the nation.
