Implementers should partner with community organizations, such as local businesses, coalitions, or advocacy groups, to collect community input prior to the installation of a naloxone cabinet. Community partners can help assess community acceptance and understanding of naloxone cabinet, as well as educate the public and support implementation.
We wish to express our thanks to all community partners who have implemented these programs during the HEALing Communities Study. Key insights from these partners were crucial in the development of these resources that will be important tools for programs looking to build on the successes of these strategies to reduce fatal overdoses.
