POSITION: Project Analyst – Technical Assistance for Opioid Response (Part-time)

ORGANIZATION: Public Health Solutions and NYC DOHMH

Company Overview:

With an annual budget of $1.6 billion and more than 6,000 employees throughout the five boroughs, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (NYC DOHMH) is one of the largest public health agencies in the world, serving 8 million New Yorkers from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. With over 200 years of leadership in the field, we’re also one of our nation’s oldest public health agencies. The challenges we face range from obesity, diabetes and heart disease to HIV/AIDS, tobacco addiction and substance abuse, and the threat of bioterrorism. NYC DOHMH is also working to address enduring gaps in health between white New Yorkers and communities of color. Structural racism is at the root of these health inequities, which is why NYC DOHMH has made racial justice a priority. NYC DOHMH is tackling these issues with innovative policies and programs and getting exceptional results.

Program Overview:

NYC DOHMH’s Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Use Prevention, Care and Treatment (BADUPCT), works to reduce morbidity and mortality related to alcohol and substance use among New Yorkers through contracting and oversight of prevention, treatment, harm reduction, and recovery and support services; policy analysis and development; epidemiology, surveillance, and evaluation; development and dissemination of treatment and management guidelines; harm reduction initiatives; public and provider outreach and education; and community involvement and interagency collaboration. The Project Analyst will be situated within BADUPCT’s Research and Surveillance Unit, working on the CDC-Technical Assistance (CDC-TA) team.

The CDC-TA team is a grant funded unit within BADUPCT that supports local health departments (LHDs) across the country to implement successful programs and strategies to tackle the opioid overdose crisis. Programming is based on evidence-based initiatives developed by BADUPCT, and the CDC-TA team works to adapt these programs to fit the unique needs of our partner LHDs. The team collaborates closely with our funding partner, the National Association for County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), to support our partner sites meet their grant-funded deliverables and objectives. 

Two examples of BADUPCT programs that are being adapted for our LHD partner sites include Rapid Assessment and Response (RAR) and Relay. The RAR team uses timely public health data to track emerging drug issues and associated health consequences at a population level. Data used to guide investigations include unintentional drug poisoning (overdose) mortality data and syndromic emergency department data. RAR can also be deployed in response to community reports or concerns. Relay is an initiative providing peer support to individuals transported to hospital emergency departments (EDs) following a non-fatal overdose. Wellness Advocates visit patients in the ED to provide immediate support and overdose prevention training following an overdose event and offer ongoing support and linkage to care for three months following hospital discharge.

Along with providing direct technical assistance through biweekly conference calls with each site, the CDC-TA team is also developing a series of online learning modules to further disseminate the NYC DOHMH’s work nationally.

The selected candidate will be an employee of Public Health Solutions (PHS), a nonprofit organization that is the fiscal manager for DOHMH, but will be supervised by the CDC-TA team/ NYC DOHMH leadership.

This position is grant funded until 07/31/2021 but may be extended based on funding availability. This position is part-time with the potential to expand to full-time based on workload and funding availability.

Position Summary:

Reporting to the CDC-TA Team Senior Program Lead and/or the Project Coordinator, the Project Analyst will support the expansion of BADUPCT programs to selected LHDs.
