ODMAP Featured in NIJ Report to Congress

In a report that details the results of a national needs assessment of forensic science service providers conducted in 2017-2018, the National Institute of Justice recommends that laboratories and medical examiner/coroner (ME/C) offices consider using the University of Baltimore Center for Drug Policy and Prevention’s Overdose Mapping Application Program (ODMAP). The report suggested that partnerships facilitated by ODMAP “may provide an opportunity for laboratories and ME/C offices to provide direct feedback to ODMAP partners on the results of drug and toxicology analysis and death investigations.” For more information on the report recommendations, click here.
