Harm Reduction Navigators for Naloxone Distribution and Education about Harm Reduction and Overdose Prevention as part of the OD2A: Local Grant

This procurement seeks a qualified vendor to provide part‑time Harm‑Reduction Navigators who will distribute naloxone, conduct overdose‑prevention education, and deliver group trainings under the OD2A local grant framework. The work includes hiring and training navigators, ensuring at least half of the staff represent priority populations, executing a minimum number of distribution events and trainings each grant year, and submitting detailed monthly data and quarterly reports to the Sedgwick County Health Department. Funding is modest, covering navigator stipends and allowable costs, with a five‑year performance period from September 2023 to August 2028. No proposals were received, so the contract remains unawarded. • Hire and train part‑time navigators (max 960 hrs / year per navigator) • Conduct ≥ 3–8 naloxone distribution events and 2–3 group trainings per year, targeting priority groups • Provide monthly data, quarterly meetings, and detailed timesheets for reimbursement
