Letter to the Editor: be sure to attend the Opiate Crisis Forum June 7

To the Editor:

I am writing to encourage my fellow Shoreline / Lake Forest Park neighbors to be sure to attend the Opiate Crisis Forum 7:00pm at Third Place Commons on Wednesday June 7th.

The LFP Municipal Court is hosting an outstanding panel to help us understand the nature of the crisis and what we can do about it.

This is not something happening elsewhere! It affects us -- right here in our towns. Pain-killing opiates -- widely prescribed -- are too often the first step on the path to addiction.
