WHAT IS PROJECT OPIOID?
At Project Opioid, we empower leaders to confront the overdose crisis. We align leaders around one shared goal: to reduce Opioid deaths in their community. We educate leaders on how to build a coalition, launch a regional overdose initiative, and promote High-Level Advocacy to transform and save the greatest number of lives in their community.

OUR HISTORY
On March 23rd, 2022, Sheriff Bill Brown brought together leaders from the government, non-profit, healthcare, business, philanthropic, criminal justice, faith-based, and education communities to confront the increasing overdose deaths occurring in Santa Barbara County. The overdose crisis is being fueled by the synthetic opioid fentanyl. Project Opioid is a local initiative to promote high-level advocacy to transform and save the greatest number of lives in Santa Barbara County.
