About the Webinar:

Our next Deeper Dive webinar will focus on the critical importance of “getting upstream” to more-effectively combat the most-devastating public health crisis in modern U.S. history. The presentations by our three expert panelists – along with other special guests – will include discussion of the just-published NIC Opioid Use Disorder Prevention Playbook, which examines replicable strategies being tested across the country to accomplish that goal. Learn more about the Playbook in our latest blog and on the NIC Collaboration Hub.

Registration for the webinar is now open, so reserve your spot today. We’ve designed our Deeper Dive presentations to go beyond the traditional webinar format in order to expand the opportunity for ongoing learning and to facilitate networking with others interested in the topic.

About the NIC Deeper Dive Webinar Series: We’ve designed these presentations to go beyond the traditional webinar format in order to expand the opportunity for ongoing learning and facilitate networking with others interested in the topic of the event. There are two unique aspects to our “Deeper Dive” webinar-plus series, using the new Collaboration and Communication Hub.

• Before each webinar, we’ll publish a blog that includes key discussion points relating to the subject being examined. Readers will be invited to go to the NIC Hub to ask questions, offer insights and engage in discussions that extend the learning from the blog and inform the webinar’s content.
• Q&A will begin on the webinar platform after presentations, but the learning won’t end there. Rather, attendees can continue interacting with our expert presenters – and to engage in an ongoing conversation with other attendees/colleagues – by jumping to the NIC Hub.

Our webinar-plus series takes a different approach because it aims for a different outcome. It is designed to be an integral part of an ongoing, action-oriented agenda to advance interoperability and data-sharing. The objective of all of NIC’s work is to provide the information, tools and other resources needed to improve systems and increase collaboration among the multiple domains that impact health and well-being. Learn more about the primary domains in which NIC works.
