| | | | | | | | Background:
The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) offered a State Opioid Response grant to provide targeted training education and distribution of naloxone in accordance with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. This is an effort to weave and expand current state funding for opioid crisis planning efforts together in a working whole. Services within the grant will be targeted to the disproportionately impacted Native American community.
DHS will reimburse Hennepin County Human Services and Public Health for costs to:
-
Provide 15 hours of weekly walk-in naloxone distribution hours within the Red Door Clinic.
-
Increase number of naloxone kits distributed through clinic-based programming.
- Conduct targeted naloxone education and kit distribution to residents of Little Earth.
