MO-CORPS

Coordinating Overdose Response Partnerships and Support

MO-CORPS is a newly funded project through the SAMHSA FR-CARA grant and MO Department of Health and Senior Services, focused on integrating first responders work with evidence-based public health models.

This project focuses on:

  1. Evidence-informed training for first responders working with people who use drugs

  2. Improving overdose response through naloxone distribution with local public health agencies and first responders

  3. Developing resource referral networks for first responders in 20 target counties with the highest overdose rates across the state

This project is still in early implementation phases, focused on curriculum development. Check back soon to learn more about how your first responder team can get connected!
