Overdose education and naloxone distribution among women with a history of OUD transitioning to the community following jail release
Incarcerated women in this sample reported a history of behaviors that may signal overdose risk upon release to the community such as injection drug use and non-fatal overdose. Study findings suggest targeted OEND efforts for women in general are desperately needed, and particularly among women at highest risk during community re-entry.
