We are an interdisciplinary research team, led by Dr. Lauren Brinkley\-Rubinstein. Our work draws on the expertise of criminal legal system\-involved persons and carceral and community stakeholders to inform innovative research that has practice and policy implications. **About the Research:** Overdose is one of the leading causes of death in the US. People who are exposed to or impacted by the criminal legal system disproportionately report using substances and experience high rates of overdose. Community Paramedic or Post\-Overdose Response Team programs have grown across the country to address this crisis. These teams respond during and after overdoses to offer life\-saving support—including naloxone, medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), and connections to health and social services, to help people get care rather than face arrest or incarceration. However, these programs mostly focus on individual\-level care. Research shows that broader issues—like lack of housing, difficulty accessing public benefits, and unmet legal needs—also drive overdose risk. These are sometimes called “health\-harming legal needs” (HHLN). Medical\-Legal Partnerships bring together legal and healthcare professionals to address these deeper challenges and reduce the chance of future overdose harm.
