In this podcast, part of the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Program (or COAP) podcast series, Michael Kane, senior project direct of the Crime and Justice Institute at Community Resources for Justice, and Valarie Tickle, a criminal justice planning coordinator with the state of Delaware’s Criminal Justice Council, discuss Delaware’s approach to collecting and incorporating feedback from a community planning an initiative in response to the opioid epidemic. Ms. Tickle describes how, as the agency responsible for developing plans to implement COAP funding, selecting grantees, and administering grants, the Criminal Justice Council sought to improve understanding of community-level needs when crafting a program strategy. Through a series of community roundtables, the group identified goals and program areas to target with implementation funding.
