- Enhance and/or expand overdose prevention and harm reduction activities for persons in active use of substances.
- Engage persons who are in active use of substances in overdose prevention and harm reduction activities.
- Support distribution of opioid overdose reversal medication, safer drug use supplies, and harm/risk reduction information to individuals at risk of overdose.
