(2) Engage an Early Warning Network composed of two components: local health experts on drug use from selected communities (Sentinel Sites) and a broader network of community-based health researchers, to support the bi-directional sharing of information and insights into drug use patterns in their communities and to support the ongoing monitoring, interpretation, and dissemination of data. (3) Identify, compile, analyze, and triangulate research data and resources from multiple sources to assess and contextualize emerging drug threats. (4) Disseminate contextualized research findings, data, and resources to key audiences who can use the data to inform their response.
