FREE Webinar: Systemic Medication-Assisted Treatment Planning in Corrections

August 21 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
doctor with pills

Made possible by an independent educational grant from Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals

The opioid epidemic continues to present significant challenges for correctional facilities, including limited access to addiction treatment, heightened risk of overdose, and increased institutional violence. Implementing and expanding medication-assisted treatment programs in jails and prisons is a proven strategy to address these issues, reduce recidivism, and support successful reentry. This webinar provides a comprehensive overview of MAT planning, program design, workforce training, treatment delivery, reentry coordination, program evaluation, and long-term sustainability.

1 hour of CE for ACCME, ANCC, APA, and general.

There is no charge to attend this webinar.
