Interactive Map – Impact of State Targeted Response & State Opioid Response Grants

NASADAD has developed an interactive map showing the impact of State Targeted Response (STR) & State Opioid Response (STR) grants.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) previously funded the State Targeted Response to the Opioid Crisis (STR) grant and currently funds its successor, the State Opioid Response (SOR) grant, to address the opioid crisis.  SOR funding can be used to support evidence-based prevention, treatment, and recovery support services for opioid and stimulant misuse and use disorders.

To understand how grant recipients have used these funds, NASADAD developed state and territorial -specific briefs that describe highlights of each state alcohol and drug agency’s use of STR/SOR funds across the continuum of care.  Thematic briefs were also developed to analyze common strategies and services states have implemented for opioid and stimulant misuse and use disorders using STR/SOR funding.

On September 8, 2022, NASADAD hosted a virtual event including remarks from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Opioid Response Network (ORN), and Single State Agency (SSA) Directors, who presented on SOR-funded initiatives and shared their impact.
