Harm Reduction Technical Assistance Center Funding Application
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), Division of Public Health (DPH) is seeking applications from community-based, non-profit, or local government organizations with experience providing technical assistance and referrals to care and harm reduction services. The selected organization will be tasked with establishing a Harm Reduction Technical Assistance Center (HRTAC) to provide training and technical assistance to individuals and organizations who provide harm reduction services for people who use drugs. The HRTAC project is a focused intervention that will help provide support to harm reduction organizations who connect PWUD with harm reduction resources such as information regarding syringe service programs, access to NarcanŽ and/or naloxone, as well as educational materials encouraging safer use. This project will require the awarded organization to partner with, and provide support to, existing harm reduction organizations, local health departments, and coalitions to increase access to harm reduction services and support programming to reduce overdose. In consultation with agencies who provide direct services to PWUD, the HRTAC will be expected to support tailored community response by raising awareness, disseminating information, providing resources, and implementing trainings and educational programs. Eligible organizations could include, but are not limited to, community-based organizations, such as syringe service programs, non-profit organizations, and health or human service departments. Applications in response to this RFA must be submitted online. The deadline to apply for this funding opportunity is 11:59 p.m. on July 1, 2024.
