The Delaware Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health's (DSAMH) State Opioid Response (SOR) project is a statewide initiative that will enhance and further develop the opioid and stimulant use disorder (OUD/STUD) system of care for all Delawareans while dedicating focused efforts on six key populations: pregnant and parenting people, racial/ethnic minorities, individuals in high-need zip codes (including rural), LGBTQ+ populations, justice-involved populations, and school-aged youth. Building on efforts in SOR 2, DSAMH and its partners will: (1) enhance structures and processes to oversee and administer grant activities; (2) establish a centralized data-responsive strategy and hub (the "Opioid Response Center" or ORC); (3) increase the availability, quality, and sustainability of evidence-based treatment and recovery services, with a focus on low-barrier, rapid-access to Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) and contingency management programming; (4) effectively collaborate with other systems and entities, as well as the public, to facilitate OUD/STUD prevention, harm reduction practices, and seamless pathways into OUD/STUD treatment and recovery services; (5) support new and existing partners to proficiently implement evidence-based and data-responsive practices to improve the engagement, care, and outcomes of under-served populations; and (6) implement recovery support services that facilitate pathways to long-term recovery, address social needs, and promote quality of life.
HHS’ Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System (TAGGS) website provides access to detailed descriptions of grants, loans, aggregated direct payments and other types of financial assistance awarded by the HHS Operating Divisions (OPDIVs) and the Office of the Secretary Staff Divisions (STAFFDIVs).
