View Award Abstract

The State of Alabama is requesting $13,544,925 per year for two the two-year State Opioid Response project. Alabama proposes to serve over 24,000 individuals with an array of services. The overall goal of Alabama’s SOR is to reduce the number of deaths in Alabama that are related to opioid overdose by 30% over the two-year project period. To reduce opioid related morbidity and mortality, Alabama will focus on reducing disparities and expanding the use of evidence-based practices. The focus of the SOR funding is: 1) expansion of Medication Assisted Treatment, particularly in populations/areas where disparities in access exist or where OUD is most prevalent; 2) outreach to providers to participate in MAT; 3) continuation of prevention efforts in the STR strategic plan 4) introduction of publicly funded evidence-based recovery housing; 5) improvement in the state’s coordination efforts and data analytics to better plan and implement its strategic response to the crisis. All individuals served by SOR funding will have access to the full range of treatment offered by ADMH, which includes a full spectrum of services at all ASAM levels. By coordinating existing funded activities and augmenting them with SOR activities, Alabama expects to lower the rate of overall opioid overdose deaths and increase rates of sustained recovery. The project will be statewide, with a focus on a continuation of strategies that have worked well in urban areas, and the use of a hub and spoke model to expand MAT services in the most rural region of Alabama. The Alabama Department of Mental Health’s Division of Substance Abuse Services is the designated Single State Agency for SAMSHA SOR services and will administer this project. Alabama has one of the highest rates of Opioid prescribing in the US, and while progress is being made, there is a significant unmet need for treatment for tens of thousands of Alabamians with limited access to care. Alabama will engage a wider workforce of health care providers to step up to the front lines of care for individuals struggling with opioid addiction by focusing on recruiting and training more medical physicians and nurse practitioners to become DATA waivered and provide MAT. Alabama will offer, for the first time, public support for recovery housing, a strategy which is key to long term, sustainable recovery for thousands of individuals. ADMH will take a strategic, evidence-based approach by focusing on proven strategies designed to lower morbidity and mortality from opioid abuse and addiction. These include use of the Strategic Prevention Framework, workforce development and training around MAT, expanded access to care, particularly for veterans and minority populations who experience significant disparities in accessing treatment and sustaining recovery, and use of proven recovery supports including peer support and recovery housing.
