With limited treatment infrastructure and resources, two rural communities in Southeast Utah utilized community-based participatory research collaboration principles to develop, implement, and evaluate a series of evidence-based community opioid education events. This practical and quantitative study surveying 123 participants describes the collaborative efforts of two rural communities in addressing the devastating impacts of the opioid overdose epidemic and reflects on the success of the events via descriptive analysis of summary data. These events increased participants\u2019 reported perceptions of and knowledge in four main education areas: stigma reduction, prevention and treatment awareness, naloxone education and use, and resource location awareness. Post-event surveys further supported these results, revealing improved learning in each of these four areas, indicating increased knowledge toward opioid use disorder treatments and stigma reduction. In addition, participants identified key takeaways such as local resource awareness and dismantling stigma as effective strategies to reduce the negative effects of the opioid overdose epidemic. This model for rural community education supports previous research and serves as an effective strategy of public health practice to address the opioid overdose epidemic on a local level.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10901981221135506","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,16]],"date-time":"2022-11-16T07:07:40Z","timestamp":1668582460000},"page":"728-737","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Opioid Use Disorder Community Education Events: Rural Public Health Implications"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"Alise Williams","family":"Condie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Utah State University Extension, HEART Initiative, Logan, UT, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hailey","family":"Judd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Utah State University Extension, HEART Initiative, Logan, UT, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6332-7922","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ashley C.","family":"Yaugher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Utah State University Extension, HEART Initiative, Logan, UT, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10901981221135506","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1353\/cpr.2018.0029"},{"key":"bibr2-10901981221135506","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/07347324.2019.1585216"},{"key":"bibr3-10901981221135506","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1525-1446.2003.20605.x"},{"key":"bibr4-10901981221135506","first-page":"309","volume":"3","author":"Butterfoss F.
