In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, NJ’s Drug Monitoring Initiative (DMI) has created a “New Jersey Resource Guide” and accompanying overview IDR to provide all partners and the public with a comprehensive directory/list of programs, links, and information to relevant resources for a variety of topics. Updated: 5/7/2020
The Guide is prepared for your immediate use and, once uploaded by our NJ CARES partners, you can access the updated PDF version at:
