DESCRIPTION
The Skeeterhawk Experiment was organized in March 2013 to help end the scourge of prescription drug misuse through the testing of innovative prevention, treatment, and overdose rescue strategies in real-life communities, beginning in Northeast Florida. Utilizing data gathered from a multitude of reliable sources, The Skeeterhawk Experiment believes it is possible for every community to devise targeted, data-driven strategies to tackle its unique set of prescription drug misuse problems. This is the organization's Northeast Florida community presentation for 2013.
