I'd like to thank Hannah for the opportunity to share more about the QRT team.

The Quick Response Team (QRT) partners trained peer navigators with law enforcement officers to provide proactive and reactive outreach throughout Hamilton County.

The Quick Response Teams provides "in-home" triage and assessment of the overdose victims, 3 to 5 days post-overdose, with the immediate goal of connecting the overdose victim with the most appropriate treatment specific to their needs.

QRT approaches all encounters with the simple message: "How can we help you?"

Inbound Referral Sources:
- Law Enforcement
- Fire/EMS
- Hospitals
- Public Health
- Justice Center
- Other Community-based Referrals

The QRT provides a variety of harm reduction materials, education, and resources while out in the Hamilton County Community on proactive and reactive outreach.
