The Oswego County Opioid Response Consortium (OCORC) and the Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP) host a series of community conversations about opioid use disorder and the stigma surrounding it.

The events serve as opportunities for the public to learn about how the OCORC supports residents with opioid use disorder and their families. It also discusses stigma and ways to reduce it in communities. Discussions are interactive and include portraits and videos.

The conversations will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on the following Thursdays:

• Oct. 5: Connection Point, 198 W. First St., Oswego
• Oct. 19: Catholic Charities, 808 W. Broadway, Fulton
• Nov. 2: Pulaski Welcome Center, 96 Bella Rd., Pulaski
