Center for Opioid Research, Education, and Outreac

Program Description

Recognizing a need and opportunity to serve our local communities and the state of Alabama, the Harrison College of Pharmacy established the Center for Opioid Research, Education and Outreach, or COACH, in 2019. We have a long history of conducting vital work in this area, but the creation of the center allows us to unify our existing programs and research. COACH brings a holistic response to a complex and multifaceted problem, working to serve our citizenry by becoming a recognized leader in advocacy, research, education, and outreach by improving the health and well-being of those impacted by opioids and substance use disorders. Please explore our website to learn more about COACH and to view our continuing education offerings as well as upcoming events.
