PRONTO ADAPT
PRONTO ADAPT is a NIH-funded R21 study that seeks to identify programmatic innovations and adaptations that post-overdose outreach programs implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. We have disseminated a survey to all active post-overdose outreach programs across the state, and will conduct qualitative interviews with post-overdose outreach program staff and leadership as well as overdose survivors who have utilized these services. The overall goal of this study is to create a toolkit of these adaptations useful for other post-overdose outreach programs, both now and in the event of future public health emergencies.
