Vancouver’s Opioid Fentanyl Street Crisis: Documentary Screening

Two days before The Opioid Crisis in Vancouver discussion panel, the Green College Outreach Committee will host an evening of documentaries regarding the opioid crisis in the DTES, followed by a discussion round. This evening is intended to generate a sense of the scope of the problem, and to raise awareness and engagement leading up to the panel on April 17. For many academics, the everyday realities of the DTES are far away from their own lived experiences, but considering that the opioid crisis cuts across social lines and geographies, the Outreach Committee hopes to bring a stronger sense of urgency and reality into our community.
