I’m working on a ethnic studies case study and need a reference to help me understand better.

The opioid epidemic has caused a lot of concern and attention in recent years due to the number of Americans who have died from opioid overdose. Read the case “The Opioid Epidemic”.

In an APA-formatted paper of at least 4 pages, not including the cover page and references, discuss the following:

Have pharmaceutical companies such as Purdue Pharma, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Insys Therapeutics, and others demonstrated corporate social responsibility? Explain why or why not?

How have these companies prioritized their stakeholders? Which stakeholders are most and least prioritized?

What steps should companies that manufacture opioids take in order to more positively respond to stakeholders and increase their corporate social responsibility?

Be sure to cite sources that support/provide evidence for what you write.
