Funding
Funding for this program comes from the San Francisco Department of Public Health in conjunction with opioid settlement funds and California State Mental Health Services Act funds.
Additional investment from private philanthropy is needed to expand youth overdose prevention services, including increased capacity for treatment with focused expertise on the unique needs of the Black/African American community.
