Goal: To increase awareness about the prevalence of the heroin use problem in New Hampshire, the benefits and availability of Naloxone as a rescue drug in the event of overdose, the legal protections covered by the Good Samaritan law, and treatment and recovery services available in New Hampshire

Overview: JSI worked with the New Hampshire Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services to develop and implement two phases of the Anyone.Anytime.NH public awareness campaign, including the paid media campaign, social media, and community outreach materials. We conducted a series of seven focus groups to test messages and inform creative development of NH-based campaign. The multi-media campaign includes a variety of channels and grassroots approaches, including: events, website, social media, print materials, radio, TV, and outdoor advertising. JSI provided staffing, expertise, and services to implement this campaign across the state.
