Opioid Survey

The Opioid Antagonists in Local Detention Facilities Survey was a limited-term data collection instrument to gather information related to drugs and drug overdoses in each local detention facility (adult and juvenile). Some items are reported for both administrations of the survey, May and July of 2024. Other items are only collected with the first administration, May of 2024. Details of data variables can be found in the Survey Overview document in the resources below.

Each local agency (sheriff department or probation department) is requested to provide a response for each facility operated by the agency. The BSCC screened the reported information and relies on the counties to provide accurate and reliable information. Additionally, the BSCC standardized reporting across agencies and facilities by providing guidance on data reporting through several mechanisms. These include the Survey Overview document (see link below), a reporting webinar for all data reporters, and one-on-one technical assistance as needed. Summary reports of responses (adult and juvenile) are located below.

Each sheriff department and probation department was requested to provide a response for each facility in operation for two survey administrations. The first administration collected data for the months of January through March of 2024 and the second administration collected data for the months of April through June 2024. Combined, six months of data were gathered. The following infographic provides a summary of the data received.
