The Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention coordinates Colorado’s response to the misuse of medications such as opioids, stimulants, and sedatives. The Consortium’s mission is to reduce prescription drug misuse and abuse in Colorado by developing policies, programs, and partnerships with the many state agencies, organizations, and community coalitions addressing one of Colorado’s major public health crises.

The Consortium is supported by and located at the University of Colorado Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus. Our external relations staff live and work in local communities representing four regions of the state, allowing us to best facilitate a statewide approach.

This educational program consists of self-study education modules that healthcare providers can complete at their own pace.
