Advisory Committee for a Resilient Nevada
The Advisory Committee for a Resilient Nevada (ACRN) was established to obtain advice and council from persons and entities who possess knowledge and experience related to the prevention of opioid misuse, opioid related deaths and injury, as well as addiction and opioid use disorders within Nevada. The goal is to effectively address risks, impacts, and harms of the opioid crisis in Nevada through the FRN.
The ACRN contributes feedback and best practices to the statewide needs assessment and plan. This state plan, updated every four years, will include an analysis of the impacts of opioid use and opioid use disorder based on quantitative and qualitative data to determine priorities for programming to be supported by the FRN. The state plan will prioritize overdose prevention strategies, youth substance use prevention, and focus on health equity and identifying disparities across all racial, ethnic and special populations, and across geographic regions.
