Block Grant Program
Maryland’s Office of Overdose Response distributes $4 million annually through our Block Grant Program. This program helps to ensure that all of Maryland’s 24 local jurisdictions receive a base level of funding to support overdose-related programs and initiatives. The program also takes into account the local impacts of the opioid and overdose crisis and distributes half of the funds proportionally based on overdose mortality rates. These funds are distributed directly to local jurisdictions and are administered by local health departments.
