Programs that are designed to support people who use drugs when they are alone and are consequently at higher risk of overdose, by connecting them to emergency responders automatically if they become unresponsive. Included are overdose prevention applications ("apps") where users inform their location and when they're about to use substances; depending on the technology, the app may sound an alarm that the user must stop to indicate that they're safe or may use a sonar to monitor the person's breathing and detect a potential overdose. Also included are overdose prevention hotlines where users are connected with peers with lived experience who provide them with support and can send them help if something goes wrong.
