Mediaplanet Campaign Provides Timely Resources to Americans Living with Opioid and Heroin Addictions
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 30, 2015 -- The campaign focuses on a number of topics within the industry, and calls for swift policy and advocacy measures to enact change. Editorial features include a focus on the invaluable life-saving force of naloxone, the importance of Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) in recovery, the link between opioid diversion and heroin addiction and the co-existing mental disorders that often accompany medication addictions.
Medication Addiction is a print and online campaign, distributed within this weekend’s edition of USA Today in New York, Chicago, LA and Boston, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The print component will also be featured at the upcoming American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry Annual Meeting from December 3-6 of this year. The campaign will be disseminated in all of the attendee bags at this conference.
The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets.
