Unseen Patterns to highlight impact of overdoses in Forsyth

An interactive online map that tells the story of overdoses in Forsyth County will be unveiled at two events this month.

“Unseen Patterns: The Overdose Story in Forsyth County” will be unveiled at the Forsyth County Central Library, 660 West Fifth Street, on Tuesday, March 12, from 5:30-6:30 p.m. A virtual event is planned on Monday, March 11, from 12-1 p.m. at https://bit.ly/UnseenPatterns.

Unseen Patterns uses maps to illustrate how overdoses have affected different areas and demographics in the community as a reminder that there are people behind the statistics. It also includes information about what residents can to do to prevent overdoses and available resources.
