Clay Stamp on Crafting Effective Opioid Crisis Strategies

We have to get into our schools, and our young people need to grow, and we need to arm them in elementary school so that when they get into that middle school experience, they're armed with what they need to come against those pressures.
What if there was a way to break down barriers and create more effective strategies to combat the opioid crisis? Clay Stamp, the Executive Director of Maryland's Opioid Operational Command Center, is doing just that. In this episode of the Cover2 Resources Podcast, Stamp shares how his team is tackling the epidemic with a unique blend of data analysis, community engagement, and balanced prevention and enforcement tactics.
Established in 2017 under the Interagency Heroin and Opioid Coordinating Council, the Command Center works tirelessly to collect and analyze data from state and local sources. This information helps them craft better strategies and support local jurisdictions in their fight against opioid misuse. One standout aspect of their approach is the focus on prevention and enforcement. By engaging with state agencies and the private sector, they aim to create a well-rounded response to the crisis.
The Command Center also places a strong emphasis on community involvement. They've introduced screening programs and peer support specialists to help those in need of treatment. Additionally, a hotline has been established for individuals seeking help, ensuring that resources are accessible to those who need them most. Stamp's insights offer a glimpse into how innovative approaches can provide hope in the battle against opioid addiction. Tune in to hear more about the center's strategies and successes.
