SHARP Network Process Evaluation - Practitioner Interviews

In partnership with the NC Injury and Violence Prevention branch, the UNC Injury Prevention Research Center has been facilitating a peer learning network initiative for harm reduction practitioners in the central Appalachian region for the past 3 years. This initiative, the "Sharing Harm Reduction Practices (SHARP) Network," is funded by the CDC's Overdose Data to Action program and is entering the final project year. We are conducting a process evaluation of the network to document 1) the ways in which the network has supported practitioners in their work and 2) how we built the network in case other regions would like to replicate our efforts. We plan to conduct 8 qualitative interviews with peer members to understand their experience as network participants.
