View Award Description

The City of Paterson requests funds to support the personnel costs of a Social Worker and Senior Program Monitor during the one-year grant period. - The City of Paterson will utilize $188,000 in Congressional Directive Spending funds to support the personnel costs of one full-time Senior Program Monitor and one full-time Social Worker to support our RealFix opioid overdose prevention and response program between September 30, 2023 and September 29, 2024. The proposed project will serve individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) in the City of Paterson. Paterson is the third-largest city in New Jersey with a population of 159,732 according to U.S. Census data. This program provides individuals at risk of opioid overdose with quick access to Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) by linking them to qualified local treatment providers and has distinct pathways for housed and homeless clients to ensure sustainable pathways to recovery. The measurable objectives to be achieved through this project include (1) Staff RealFix program with one full-time Social Worker and one full-time Senior Program Monitor, (2) Assist 25 homeless individuals with OUD in entering inpatient treatment and transitioning to sober housing, (3) Initiate MAT via telehealth for 300 housed clients, and (4) Provide 600 clients with information regarding local MAT and/or a referral to a vetted MAT provider. In total, 925 individuals will be served by this project.
