I am also a member of the unintentional <br /> death committee of the NC Child Fatality Task Force, a NC state legislative taskforce <br /> devoted to preventing deaths in state residents 18 years and under. I am also a member <br /> of Community Church of Chapel Hill Unitarian Universalist. and have served on the board <br /> and numerous committees of that church. I am a member of the Heritage Hills swim club <br /> and my children used to swim for the North Carolina Aquatic Club when they were <br /> younger (my two children are adults now). <br /> Opioid overdose prevention is a passion of mine. With 10 North Carolinians dying every <br /> hour, and 100,000 overdose deaths nationally in 2020, 1 feel its time for me to step up <br /> and serve my community in a tangible way. <br /> In my professional life, I am a professor of epidemiology in the school of public health at <br /> the University of North Carolina, where I direct the UNC Injury Prevention Research <br /> Center. Opioid overdose is one of five research areas at my Center. We have multiple <br /> staff members who specialize in overdose prevention. I supervise and interact with <br /> numerous experts in overdose prevention. My group worked with the NC Attorney- <br /> General s office to build the NCOpioidSettlement.0RG website. I am grateful for the <br /> chance to work in such an important area, and would appreciate the opportunity to <br /> contribute to overdose prevention through community service on the Orange County <br /> Opioid Advisory Committee. <br /> Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br /> none <br />
