Description:In 2019, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) developed a series of multistate drug overdose surveillance training workshops for public health teams conducting drug overdose surveillance in the twenty (20) state jurisdictions funded by the CDC cooperative agreement, Enhanced State Opioid Overdose Surveillance (ESOOS). CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) managed this cooperative agreement with the purpose to provide more timely and comprehensive data on fatal and nonfatal opioid overdoses and risk factors associated with fatal overdoses1. Since then, CDC NCIPC has offered a new, more comprehensive funding program to support drug overdose surveillance and expanded the types of supported jurisdictions to include local and territorial jurisdictions. Overdose Data to Action (OD2A) supports jurisdictions in collecting high-quality, comprehensive, and timely data on nonfatal and fatal overdoses.
CSTE partnered with NCIPC and the consultant team Allyson Kelley and Associates (AKA) to develop a virtual drug overdose surveillance training series targeted for local and territorial jurisdictions to offer these newly funded jurisdictions an opportunity for training on key drug overdose surveillance skills and collaboration with their peers.___ Originally planned as three-day in-person experience, the learning series was shifted to a monthly fully virtual experience due to COVID-19 related restrictions on travel and convenings. CSTE invited OD2A recipients in the nineteen (19) jurisdictions representing local and territorial jurisdictions to participate in the training series free of charge. CSTE encouraged participants to attend the series with team members from their agency including epidemiologists, analysts, program coordinators, evaluators, and key community partners.
This report describes evaluation findings based on data collected from learning lesson evaluations, semi-structured key-informant interviews, and administrative documents.
This project is supported by CSTE’s Cooperative Agreement with CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control NU380T000297-01. The views expressed in the training do not necessarily reflect the official policies of the Department of Health and Human Services or endorsement by the U.S government.
