Current Projects

​

• Community-based participatory research to better understand the experiences and needs of children and their caregivers. Results of our first research study were published in August 2021.  A second protocol in development will directly assess the needs of children and caregivers influenced by SUD in the family.  
   

• Harm reduction, including Narcan training to prevent overdose deaths.
   

• Improving continuity of care by developing partnerships to bridge gaps in services for individuals with SUD and their families. 
   

• Family support

  • An ongoing weekly Family Recovery Group beginning in early 2022, using a combined educational and peer support model.

  • Development of a caregiver "toolkit" that will include information and practical strategies to aid caregivers as they support children day by day.
