COSSUP: Dauphin County, PA Strategies
Tameka Williams, Lauren Henderson
The Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD), recognizing the opportunity for local probation and parole agencies to intervene with individuals on community supervision with OUD, launched the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant and Substance Use Site-based Program (COSSUP). COSSUP’s goal is to reduce overdose deaths among Pennsylvanians on probation and parole by building the capacity of local communities to support these individuals.
The COSSUP project involves four phases of work: (1) listening sessions with community to learn more about the impact of substance use disorder in the local community; (2) needs assessment of five participating communities including identifying assets and gaps to address SUD; (3) developing strategic action plan to build capacity of communities and fill the gap, and; (4) the implementation of the action plan. This handout is an overview of the five key strategies Dauphin County,PA plans to develop and implement as part of their community action plan.
