Opioid Treatment Ecosystem News

Michigan Opioid Partnership Impact Report
Michigan Opioid Partnership Impact Report  

This report, the first Annual Report for the MOP Partners and interested constituents, focuses on progress made through July 30th, 2020. It is designed to provide an overview of the history of the MOP to date, the grantmaking strategy, and an overview of funds that have been deployed. With funding from MOP, the CBHJ developed OTE initiative, a technical assistance framework aimed at strengthening community-based substance use disorder treatment at the intersection of criminal/legal systems—including initiatives involving first responders and post-overdose response. Addressing the institutional culture and championing the adoption of new processes and protocols for MOUD are two of the most important pieces to increasing access to evidence-based, life-saving treatment for opioid use disorder and ensuring a sustainable model.
