The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) is accepting grant applications to provide intranasal
naloxone to first responders in rural counties. Only first responders who provide services in rural
counties are eligible to receive the naloxone doses. For grant purposes, “first responders”
includes (professional and volunteer) firefighters, law enforcement officers, paramedics,
emergency medical technicians, or other legally organized and recognized volunteer
organizations that respond to adverse opioid-related incidents. Please email the naloxone
program manager if you think your agency might be considered a first responder agency and is
not listed.
First responder organizations that receive naloxone doses will be responsible for administering
the doses and reporting their use to IDOH through the required methods.
