Nevada County Public Health, in partnership with Nevada County Behavioral Health and Nevada Joint Union High School District Adult Ed, would like to invite you to a special free screening of the award-winning documentary film Written Off, which chronicles a young man’s struggles with opioid addiction. We are pleased to have the director of the film, Molly Hermann, and one of its inspirations, Jane Edwards, join us for the screening of the film and a panel discussion afterward.
Here is a short synopsis of the film: Grippingly honest personal journals reveal the secrets one man worked so hard to conceal as an innocent prescription for painkillers leads to a 10-year struggle to escape opiates and the stigma that surrounds his addiction. You can learn more about the film at written-off.com.
