To combat the opioid crisis, Florida’s Overdose Data to Action Program in States (OD2A-S) goal is to prevent opioid-related harms and overdose by working with providers and health systems to reduce unsafe exposure to opioids and treat addiction. By coordinating with public safety and community-based partners we can identify overdose threats, reverse overdoses, link people to effective treatment, and reduce harms associated with illicit opioids.
