Historically, only certified Addiction Treatment Centers could treat opioid addiction. But that has changed! Treatment with buprenorphine can now be available local primary care practices near you.
The "MAT for OUD in the SLV" campaign was created by local community members in rural south central Colorado. The products that were developed included posters, drink coasters, placemats, and Veteran business cards. These materials were distributed throughout the IT MATTTRs study region, and the messages emphasized that everyone deserves access to care, the personal connection to opioid misuse, and messages of hope.
