Though opioid addiction affects people from all backgrounds, research shows that it disproportionately impacts communities of color and males. From 2019 to 2020, black and Hispanic populations accounted for five times the number of hospital visits related to opioids vs white or non-hispanic populations. In addition to that, men made up 72.4% of all opioid overdose ER visits.
How Illinois Responded
The State of Illinois responded by launching a plan on September 6th, 2017 to reduce opioid abuse and save lives called the "State Opioid Action Plan" (or SOAP for short). The overall goal of this plan was to reduce opioid deaths by 33% in three years. It included initiatives like expanding access to treatment, improving access to naloxone (a life-saving opioid overdose reversal agent), and working with healthcare providers and community organizations.

Unfortunately, as statistics have shown the crisis only got worse before it got better. However, since 2014 over 54,000 first responders have trained on how to use Naloxone, and more than 70,000 doses have been administered. The state has also made progress by expanding medication-assisted treatment access across counties that did not have prescribers. From June 2018 to June 2019, 15 counties gained at least one prescriber.
