In this interactive session we will examine Generation Rx, a national prevention program that provides free, evidence-informed resources which help prevent prescription drug misuse. Generation Rx provides tailored activities and resources for Elementary, Teen, University, Adult and Older Adult audiences, which include lesson plans, talking points, ready-to-use learning activities, and recommendations for adaptation to low-tech settings. This session will introduce participants to the Generation Rx portfolio of educational resources, including identifying effective approaches for resource delivery and participant engagement. Participants will also discuss ideas for launching and sustaining local Generation Rx programming through community partnerships. Participants will leave this session equipped with practical approaches and resources to support local prescription drug misuse prevention efforts.
