Path & Point Collective delivers mobile, evidence-based medication follow-up and support to people most at risk of overdose after crisis, emergency response, hospital care, and justice-system transitions.
People are often stabilized during a crisis and then left to navigate the hardest transition alone. Path & Point intervenes before a disconnected handoff becomes another emergency.
The system may reverse an overdose and initiate care, but follow-up can break down before treatment is established.
A person may receive medication while incarcerated and then lose continuity at release, when overdose risk rises.
Path & Point Collective connects people at high risk of overdose to lifesaving medication follow-up, peer support, care navigation, and practical resources after emergency response, hospital care, or justice-system transition.
We envision communities where every person leaving crisis, incarceration, or emergency care has a supported pathway to treatment, dignity, stability, and long-term health.
Clear measures make the model useful to patients, EMS agencies, hospitals, counties, community partners, and funders.
Increase enrollment after overdose, hospital treatment, or release from incarceration.
Improve thirty-day and ninety-day retention in ongoing medication treatment.
Reduce repeat overdose events among enrolled participants.
Reduce repeat emergency responses among high-risk participants.
Reduce repeat emergency department visits related to overdose and withdrawal.
Expand medication follow-up and recovery support in underserved communities.
