Naloxone Grant Opportunity for Rural First Responders

The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) is accepting grant applications to provide intranasal naloxone to first responders in rural counties. Only first responders who provide services in rural counties are eligible to receive the naloxone doses. For grant purposes, “first responders” includes (professional and volunteer) firefighters, law enforcement officers, paramedics, emergency medical technicians, or other legally organized and recognized volunteer organizations that respond to adverse opioid-related incidents. Please email the naloxone program manager if you think your agency might be considered a first responder agency and is not listed. First responder organizations that receive naloxone doses will be responsible for administering the doses and reporting their use to IDOH through the required methods.
