- Abstract:
  "The goal of this master's thesis is to investigate approaches to the opioid epidemic in the Piedmont Triad Region in North Carolina. Through interviews and case study methodologies, I examine the history, functions, and resource mobilization of CURE Triad, a local organization fighting the epidemic, and its members. Included in mobilizing resources is first, identifying necessary resources, and second, identifying which resources are not readily available. This case study advances the understanding of how social movements, local organizations, and resources are used to address social problems such as drug use, abuse, and addiction."--Abstract from author supplied metadata
