Summary

This study compares two methodologies for improving access to medication assisted treatment (MAT) in Ohio courts where MAT is currently restricted or prohibited. All participating courts are asked to view two educational modules. Module 1 addresses the nature of opioid addiction and treatment. Module 2 addresses concerns specific to criminal justice such as misuse and diversion of medications. Courts selected for the experimental group also receive a hands-on change team initiative in which specially trained professionals work with court staff to provide education and instrumental assistance in order to improve access to MAT for court supervisees who are opioid-dependent.
