Building Home Visiting Infrastructure and Supports for Families Impacted by Opioid Use Disorder

This training will describe the implementation processes used by a diverse set of twenty local implementing agencies to engage and support families impacted by substance use disorders in high-prevalence communities. The presentation will expand thinking about the infrastructure needs to implement new methods of enrollment, retention, and service coordination for vulnerable populations and identify lessons learned from local pilot program implementation across communities in a single state. This includes how to build meaningful partnerships with community-based providers and other child and family serving agencies, engage with policymakers on this topic to ensure appropriate systems supports, and conduct and engage with research on this topic.
