HHS serves as the national hub for opioid overdose prevention, treatment, recovery, and data-driven strategies. It offers straightforward guidance—from safe prescribing and overdose response (like naloxone access) to recovery supports and links to treatment services. The department emphasizes equity and practical tools to reduce overdose risk and help individuals and organizations respond effectively.
They coordinate a multi‑agency, five-point strategy focused on prevention, harm reduction, evidence-based treatment, recovery infrastructure, and equitable access to care. Whether you’re supporting yourself, a coworker, or working to include addiction support in your AEC wellness policies, HHS provides accessible, trusted resources.
