Harm Reduction Program Grant

The purpose of the program is to support community-based overdose prevention programs, syringe services programs, and other harm reduction services.

Funding will be used to enhance overdose and other types of prevention activities to help control the spread of infectious diseases and the consequences

of such diseases for individuals with, or at risk of developing substance use disorders (SUD), support distribution of opioid overdose reversal medication to individuals at risk of overdose, build connections for individuals at risk for, or with, a SUD to overdose education, counseling, and health education, refer individuals to treatment for infectious diseases, such as HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and viral hepatitis, and encourage such individuals to take steps to reduce the negative personal and public health impacts of substance use or misuse.

This will include supporting capacity development to strengthen harm reduction programs as part of the continuum of care.

Recipients will also establish processes, protocols, and mechanisms for referral to appropriate treatment and recovery support services.

Grantees will also provide overdose prevention education to their target populations regarding the consumption of substances including but not limited to opioids and their synthetic analogs.

Funds may also be used to help address the stigma often associated with risky behaviors and participation in harm reduction activities.
