Summary

Despite rising rates of fatal opioid overdoses in the United States, adolescents with OUD are far less likely than adults to receive and be retained on medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD). The multicomponent Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS) intervention for young adults seeks to increase adherence to extended-release MOUD and reduce opioid relapse through family involvement, assertive outreach, low-barrier access to MOUD, and contingency management. By expanding investigations of the evidence based YORS intervention to adolescents, especially those on sublingual buprenorphine, this project will significantly contribute to our knowledge base of practical strategies to address the opioid crisis in youth.

Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS)

The Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS) model is an innovative wrap-around approach that attempts to address barriers to medication adherence in this vulnerable young adult population. The YORS intervention primary components are (as detailed below): 1. Low barrier access to MOUD, including home delivery, ride-share app transportation and mobile van delivery and low barrier access to MOUD in general 2. Engagement of families in collaborative treatment planning and monitoring with a focus on medication adherence 3. Assertive continuing care: actively tracking and communicating with youth and families by text and social media to promote engagement and adherence 4. Contingency management: to provide incentives for medication adherence
