Overdose prevention and response

The overdose crisis is a public health emergency that requires our whole community to come together and save lives. We are working towards a future where people who use drugs can access care without barriers. Care that is:

  • Timely
  • Compassionate
  • Evidence-based
  • People-centered

We aim to prevent overdose deaths and improve the quality of life for all county residents.
