Overview

Opioid abuse and addiction are increasingly and relentlessly ravaging the American public, a battle whose toll leaves too many people paying the ultimate price—their life. One American dies every fifteen minutes in the United States from an opioid overdose, resulting in almost half of all drug overdose deaths in America involving a prescription opioid.  Addressing the opioid epidemic with a monolithic approach stunts positive change.

We stand in the era of Information revolution, where knowledge goes hand in hand with digital technologies and play a key role in creating a knowledge economy and a knowledge society. Digital technologies have become a part and parcel in all aspects of home-based, operational, and public lives. Information and Communication Technology including telephone lines, wireless technologies, computer technologies, software, advanced robotics, storage and other audio visual mechanisms helps in accessing, storing, transmitting, managing and manipulating essential information.
