The Rapid Response Peer – SPRINT Program (Strengthening Pathways for Rapid Integration to Treatment) is a peer support role focused on immediate engagement and follow-up with individuals who have experienced overdose, substance-related crisis, or other high-risk events. This position plays a central role in the SPRINT program by providing rapid, relationship-based peer support designed to interrupt cycles of crisis, reduce repeat overdose, and accelerate connection to treatment and recovery services.

Operating primarily in the field, the Rapid Response Peer engages individuals in coordination with EMS, hospitals, shelters, and outreach partners, meeting people where they are shortly after a crisis event. Using lived experience and trauma-informed, person-centered practices, the peer builds trust during moments of vulnerability and supports timely access to medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD), withdrawal management, residential or outpatient treatment, and recovery supports.

This role emphasizes rapid outreach, warm handoffs, and sustained follow-up to ensure individuals are not lost after emergency encounters and are supported through stabilization and early recovery.
