Bureau of Substance Addiction Services (BSAS) Dashboard

The Bureau of Substance Addiction Services (BSAS) dashboard reports on substance misuse outcomes, harm reduction services, and BSAS program enrollments – providing a comprehensive view of substance misuse across the state.

The dashboard is updated every six months, with the most recent update in January 2026. This update includes the latest data (see Data updated through section for details) and the following key enhancements to the Community Profile:

  • Data on naloxone kits now reflects distributions, rather than shipments, across the Community Profile Overview, Services, and Data to Action tabs.
  • The Data to Action tab includes an updated geographic comparison bar chart displaying naloxone kit to opioid overdose death ratios by naloxone kit source, as well as a new five-year trend graph showing naloxone kit distributions by source.
  • The Accessibility to Providers view on the Services tab has been expanded with additional service types and providers.

About this dashboard

The dashboard is comprised of two main pages: the Community Profile page, and the Data on BSAS Enrollments page.

The Community Profile provides city/town, county, and state level snapshots of substance-related deaths, emergency events, and services, while the BSAS Enrollments page reports on individuals who received services for substance use disorders, broken out by geography, fiscal years, and demographic characteristics.

Both pages can be accessed from the dashboard’s initial Home Screen. After accessing either page, there will be a navigation menu in the upper left of the dashboard allowing for further exploration of the dashboard.

We highly encourage users to review the Dashboard Overview and Enrollments Page Video Tutorial and Community Profile Page Video Tutorial where they can learn more about using the dashboard.

Users are also encouraged to review Data to Action Leveraging the BSAS Dashboard and Other Resources for Community Impact (PDF l (DOCX) for guidance on effectively utilizing data from the dashboard.
