Introduction<\/h2>\n

The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) funded opportunities in fifteen sites as part of its Implementing Overdose Response Strategies at the Local Level (IOPSLL) program. One of the recipients of the IOPSLL grant is Richmond and Henrico Health Districts (RHHD). This directory aims to increase the knowledge and accessibility of resources for individuals facing substance use disorder (SUD) and mental and behavioral health challenges.<\/p>\n

The focus of this guide is to provide a comprehensive detailed list of substance use, mental and behavioral health service facilities in Richmond City and Henrico County within an easy-to-use guide. This tool allows grassroots navigators and community-based case managers to engage with and collaborate care among support service partners to address this public health crisis.<\/p>\n

Appendix A, the methodology section of the guide, outlines the components of conducting the online research and local networking critical in identifying and authenticating regional organizations. The sustainability plan for the guide is found in Appendix B and describes how this guide will be kept current, accurate and relevant.<\/p>\n
