OD2A Data to Action Framework: Reducing Overdoses and Health Disparities Infographic
This diagram is titled “OD2A Data to Action Framework: Reducing Overdoses and Health Disparities.”
There is a purple rectangle with four smaller rectangles inside. At the center, there are bidirectional arrows connecting four words: Analyze, Prioritize, Evaluate, and Implement. Inside those arrows, there is text that says “Engage Partners & People with Lived Experience.”
The top left rectangle has text saying “SYNTHESIZE AND ANALYZE data to inform action” and a bulleted list with this text:
- Focus analyses on the most critical questions with clear timelines
- Analyze the location, trends, and characteristics of nonfatal and fatal overdoses
- Integrate lessons learned from current or previous intervention efforts
- Analyze alignment between community capacity including treatment and harm reduction resources and burden
- Interpret data with engaged partners, addressing their needs and data gaps
- Synthesize findings to identify key priorities for programmatic efforts
The top right rectangle has text saying “PRIORITIZE Feasible, Evidence-Informed, and Impactful Interventions” and a bulleted list with this text:
- Interpret data with engaged partners
- Inform efforts with scientific evidence
- Select priority activities (via strategic planning, overdose fatality reviews, work group recommendations, etc.) and ensure they are feasible and have partner buy-in
- Implement changes in a timely manner
The bottom left rectangle has text saying “EVALUATE Strategies and Impact and Make Changes as Needed” and has a bulleted list with this text:
- Assess program impact on drug overdose outcomes and health disparities
- Identify opportunities and challenges for program improvement
- Disseminate and discuss findings with partners
- Reduce negative unintended consequences
- Include feedback and experience of people receiving services
- Celebrate incremental progress
The bottom right rectangle has text saying “IMPLEMENT Evidence-Informed and Responsive Programs” and a bulleted list with this text:
- Ensure implementation has high fidelity, but is also responsive to the unique needs of people served and the community context
- Reach populations of focus to reduce overdoses and tailor programs to meet the needs of local populations of focus and community context
- Commit to continual improvement driven by community feedback, staff insights, and process evaluations
- Identify and respond to emerging challenges
