NCJA Webinar - The Evidence Behind Medication Assisted Therapies and Behavioral Interventions for Opioid Addiction

With heroin overdoses deaths doubling from 2010 to 2012, health and justice system leaders are struggling to deal with this public health crisis. Driven in part by the effectiveness of prescription drug monitoring and interdiction efforts, first time heroin use has risen steadily since 2007. While criminal justice efforts have focused on the supply side of opioid availability, much less public attention has been paid to treatment and demand reduction strategies.

This new resource will be accessible to practitioners in the field, TTA Providers, and BJA staff in order to foster collaboration.
