In response to alarming fatal overdose rates in Michigan and the broader U.S., Harm Reduction Michigan created a program to establish naloxone boxes throughout the state to support low-barrier access to the overdose reversal agent.
To understand the impact of this innovative overdose prevention initiative, Harm Reduction Michigan hired Facente Consulting to design and implement an evaluation of the naloxone box project. Facente Consulting collaborated with Harm Reduction Michigan to design an evaluation framework, identify key measures, and implement the evaluation. Facente Consulting was also responsible for disseminating evaluation findings through reports and a peer-reviewed journal article.
