Over the past two decades, the United States has experienced a trend of increasing drug overdose deaths that has measurably affected nearly every state. Although death rates from drug overdoses declined slightly overall from 2017 to 2018, a more nuanced pattern is revealed when examining rates by individual drug types and across states. SHADAC has developed these state-level snapshots of data on overdose deaths as a resource for people to better understand the crisis in their states—a key step in developing and deploying effective policy solutions.
