Recovery Opportunities Through Ongoing Treatment Sustainment
Sponsor: University of Maryland, College Park
Summary
Adolescents in rural communities face limited access to effective substance use services, increasing their risk for opioid and other substance use disorders. This project will use an adaptive, iterative implementation approach to improve the integration of external substance use service providers into rural school settings. Findings will inform strategies to integrate and scale adolescent substance use services in schools. Support for this trial is provided by the HEAL Initiative (https://heal.nih.gov/).
