Jointly produced by two independent, nonprofit civic news organizations, the
Piedmont Journalism Foundation and
Foothills Forum, “Opioid Ripples” examines the addiction epidemic from a variety of perspectives.
The series covers the challenges and potential solutions in Fauquier, Culpeper, Rappahannock and Prince William counties.
The Warrenton-based PATH Foundation provided a grant for this series.
The participating news organizations seek to increase in-depth coverage and public discussion of issues in their communities.
