Abstract

The overdose crisis remains a major public health emergency across North America, exacerbated by the presence of highly potent synthetic opioids and disproportionate access to harm reduction resources. To improve engagement with overdose response technology, this study employs a community co-design approach to develop and evaluate naloxone kit-based messaging, aiming to enhance awareness and uptake among people who use substances.
