Steuben County Public Health has launched a county overdose data dashboard to allow residents to quickly view the latest overdose trends.
County officials say it's part of an effort to increase transparency and data-driven approaches to address the ongoing opioid crisis.
“This dashboard is a significant step forward in our efforts to combat the opioid epidemic in Steuben County,” Public Health Director Darlene Smith said in a statement. “By making overdose data more accessible and transparent, we hope to empower our community to take action and support prevention and intervention strategies.”
The county is touting several key features of the online tool, including regular updates and interactive charts and graphs.
Anyone in search of more information is asked to call Steuben County Public Health at 607-664-2438.
