关于 LEAD 项目
LEADing Change on the Peninsula, or Project LEAD, was established in January 2023 and is the substance use disorder and opioid response program by the Hampton & Peninsula Health Districts (HPHD). Project LEAD's mission is to reduce drug overdoses and overdose deaths, support People Who Use Drugs (PWUDs) through supportive services, and provide greater connectivity and linkages across all substance use and social service providers on the Greater Peninsula. Project LEAD's strategies include Linkages, Education, Awareness, and Data. Learn more about our strategies below:
联系
We connect individuals to services through a referral platform called Unite Us, which enables end-to-end holistic social services and continuity of care for a client. In addition to referrals to mental and behavioral health services, we can also connect individuals to social needs services, such as food, housing assistance, transportation, workforce development, and more. We want to provide support for the unique needs of each individual experiencing Substance Use Disorder, or otherwise. Individuals can request assistance using our Assistance Request Form.
You can also check out our various community partners by visiting our Project LEAD's Community Partners page!
教育
We provide REVIVE! (Opioid overdose recognition and response using Narcan), Trauma Informed Care (TIC), Health Equity in Response to Drug Overdose, and Stigma Reduction training to all community and healthcare partners, emergency responders, and health department staff, with a goal to reduce stigma and health disparities in opioid-related treatment. If you are interested in receiving one of the above trainings, please contact us at ProjectLead@vdh.virginia.gov.
If you would like to learn more about improving health equity in your organization, please check out Project LEAD's Health Equity Resources.
意识
We frequently conduct community outreach via town halls, trainings, and events where we provide health education and free resources. We believe one of the best ways to reduce stigma around substance use and overdoses is to be in the community providing education. To request us at an event, please fill out our Outreach Request Form.
数据
Data and health equity are vital in all aspects of LEAD. Shared data metrics will be used to understand trends and areas in need of most assistance. Each metric uses evidence-based planning principles and will incorporate data-driven feedback throughout implementation. We also have data sharing agreements with community partners to respond in real-time to overdose trends in the local community. We share a report annually which compiles relevant substance use and justice-involved data from different partner organizations.
复兴!培训和纳洛酮/纳洛酮分发
