The Guilford County Solution to the Opioid Problem (GCSTOP) serves residents of Guilford County. The program was initiated with funding from the State General Assembly to Guilford County’s Emergency Services for the purpose of addressing the County’s increasing incidence of opioid overdoses and opioid related deaths. The funding is being used to support the development and initial implementation of a Rapid Response Team (RRT) intervention, which is designed to prevent repeat overdose and to counsel persistent users to enter treatment or adopt evidence-based harm reduction practices. We also provide syringe exchange, harm-reduction training, and community overdose response education.  The program serves some of our community’s most vulnerable populations: people who have overdosed and others who are at high risk for opioid related mortality.
