POSITION: TA Project Coordinator

ORGANIZATION: NYC Department of Health’s Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Use Prevention Care and Treatment

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 (DOHMH) is one of the largest public health agencies in the world, serving 8.5 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. 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 DOHMH has made racial justice a priority. DOHMH is tackling these issues with innovative policies and programs, and getting exceptional results.

Program Description:

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. This Project Coordinator will be situated within BADUPCT working with the NYC Technical Assistance (NYC TA) team.

The NYC TA team is within BADUPCT’s Research & Surveillance (R&S) unit and helps local health departments (LHDs) across the country implement successful programs and strategies to tackle the opioid overdose crisis. Programming is based on evidence-based initiatives developed by BADUPCT, and the NYC TA team works to adapt these programs to fit the unique needs of our partner LHDs. The team is grant funded and collaborates closely with our funding partners, the National Association for County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), to support our partner sites in achieving their deliverables and objectives.

Two examples of BADUPCT programs that are being adapted for our LHD partner sites include the Rapid Assessment and Response (RAR) team and the Relay Initiative. 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.

The selected candidate will be an employee of Public Health Solutions (PHS), a non-profit organization that is the fiscal manager for DOHMH. The position will be situated at DOHMH’s Gotham location (Long Island City) and supervised by the TA team Program Lead and BADUPCT leadership.

This position is grant funded until 03/31/2024 with the possibility of extension.

Summary of Position:

Reporting to the Program Lead, the Project Coordinator will support the expansion of BADUPCT programs to our partner local health departments nationwide.

This position is entry-level with opportunities to develop, learn, and grow while contributing to important public health work. The Project Coordinator will assist in the implementation of technical assistance and the development of various materials for instruction and guidance.
