Opioid Settlement Technical Assistance Learning Series: Field experiences in increasing MAT access in the northwest region of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula
This webinar will focus on regional efforts to expand MOUD/AUD care through Rural Health Clinics in northern lower Michigan. These efforts include standardization of care, staff and community education, and building recovery networks.
Communities across Michigan are receiving funds from recent opioid settlements that should be used to support evidence-based programs for preventing or treating opioid-related harms. This monthly series of educational webinars is organized and hosted by the Opioid Settlement Technical Assistance Collaborative established by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, Michigan State University, the University of Michigan and Wayne State University. The goal of this series is to share information and assist county, city, and township officials who have received settlement funding and are involved and/or interested in learning more about evidence-based practices and strategies to help remediate opioid overdoses in their communities.
Time: 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Presenters:
- Dr. Jean Kerver, Michigan State University
