Good morning, Powell. A remarkable shift in emergency response is taking shape at Ohio State, where a $400,000 grant is funding the new PEACE program to train healthcare workers and first responders in psychedelic crisis care. This timely initiative addresses the 2.8 million increase in Americans using hallucinogens since 2021, with training seminars set to begin in January 2026 to help professionals manage adverse reactions with evidence-based approaches.
Meanwhile, concern is growing for Dublin resident Corina Young, 50, who hasn't been seen since leaving her home on October 6. As authorities conduct their urgent search, local food enthusiasts have something to celebrate in Westerville with the opening of Miamar Grill on North State Street. The family-owned eatery brings homemade comfort to the area with an extensive menu featuring everything from potato pancakes to lamb chops – a welcome addition to our community's diverse dining landscape.
