- Defines an eligible overdose data program as a tool that tracks locations of suspected fatal and nonfatal overdoses and first responders' administration of opioid overdose reversal medication.
- Allows law enforcement coalitions to receive grants only for this data program, subject to the same application rules that apply to states, localities, and Indian tribes.
- Requires grantees to support coordinated public safety, behavioral health, and public health responses, make the tools interoperable with existing overdose data systems, and share data with federal, state, tribal, and territorial governments.
- Requires applicants to audit existing data and resources and submit the audit with their grant application to avoid duplication.
- Directs the Attorney General to consult with agency heads that maintain overdose data tools, including the Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy.
