Here is our season one finale episode of Boom Goes the Stigma! We are excited to share our conversation with Dr. John W. McIlvee. Dr. Mcllvee serves as the State Opioid Treatment Authority (SOTA) for the State of Oregon and is the manager of the Healthcare Professionals Service Program (HPSP). He is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, has several years of direct clinical experience in treating patients with alcohol and drug disorders, and was the former Director of Assessment and Education and Associate Director of Research at a large substance abuse treatment facility.

Dr. Mcllvee talked about the current state, cause, and impact of Oregon’s opioid crisis. He provided perspectives= on prevention, interdiction, treatment, and recovery. In addition, he discussed the power empathy has in supporting employees in treatment for or recovering from an opioid misuse disorder.

We appreciate Dr. Mclvee taking the time to talk with us!
