Notice Details

DOHMH is seeking Opioid Overdose Prevention Programs to achieve the City's broader goal of reducing the number of opioid-related deaths by ensuring naloxone distribution in neighborhoods disproportionately experiencing increases in the rate of overdose deaths. Accordingly, the goals of this solicitation are to: • Support organizations in NYC currently registered as OOPPs, or interested in becoming OOPPs, to expand overdose education and naloxone dispensing (OEND) by increasing staffing • Dispense naloxone to those at risk of an opioid overdose (including people who use both opioid and non-opioid drugs that could be mixed with fentanyl), and to their families, friends and loved ones. • Increase the availability of naloxone to individuals and communities most affected by opioid overdose. • Increase the availability of naloxone to communities with limited access to City-funded naloxone. • Offer OEND at no cost to individuals in a culturally and linguistically competent manner.
