Racial differences in overdose training, naloxone possession, and naloxone administration among clients and nonclients of a syringe services program

Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment Apr 20, 2021

Jones AA, Park JN, Allen ST, et al. - Researchers investigated racial (Black/White) differences in overdose response training and take-home naloxone (THN) possession and administration among clients and nonclients of the Baltimore syringe service program (SSP) by analyzing data from a cross-sectional survey of 263 (183 SSP clients, 80 nonclients) people who inject drugs (PWID). Per findings, they noted more frequent receipt of overdose training by SSP clients than Black non-clients. Relative to Black non-clients, THN was more frequently observed among SSP clients and White non-clients. Based on these findings, they suggest the necessity to employ outreach targeting Black PWID who do not access this central harm reduction intervention.
