Recovery Management Checkup Scalability and Sustainability Hybrid Experiment

Individuals who are involved in the criminal-legal system (CLS) are at high risk of drug-related overdose; they also face significant barriers to engaging in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery support services. To address this public health challenge, this study will test the implementation and outcomes of an evidence-based intervention, Recovery Management Check-ups (RMC), delivered within community-based programs in four Chicago communities that have high rates of drug-related overdose and arrests. The study has the potential to increase uptake of RMC in community-based programs, thereby reducing overdose-related deaths and crime-related costs and improving individual health and community public health.

Kentucky Women's Justice Community Overdose Innovation Network - Phase II

This project continues our work with women in the Kentucky Women's Justice Community Overdose Innovation Network Phase II (WJCOIN-II) with the overall aim of reducing overdose risk during the transition from jail to rural communities. WJCOIN-II has potential for significant impact regarding the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of innovative overdose prevention strategies during the high-risk time of community re-entry among vulnerable, CLS-involved women in rural communities. This research will impact the field by increasing the capacity of the criminal legal system to respond to the overdose crisis through increased access to prevention strategies to reduce overdose risk.
