New York is a geographically, racially/ethnically, and socioeconomically diverse state of over 19 million residents. The populations of focus for New York's implementation if the State Opioid Response (SOR) II Grant are New Yorkers, located anywhere in the state, who: 1.a) have an untreated opioid use disorder (OUD) b) are at risk for developing an OUD; or c) are in recovery from an OUD; or 2.a) have an untreated stimulant use disorder b) are at risk for developing a stimulant use disorder; or c) are in recovery from a stimulant use disorder. New York proposed to build on past success by investing in services identified through regional networks that will oversee the continuation, and ongoing oversight of treatment-related projects as well as expand to fully integrate prevention and recovery services by supporting network and provider collaboration. The aim is to provide services across the continuum of care to create a wholistic approach to community intervention at the regional level. This includes utilizing measures to encourage network and provider collaboration to attain further increases in MAT initiation, MAT adherence, continuation of engagement in treatment, and continuity between levels of care, as well as demonstrably improved outreach to people who use opioids and/or stimulants who are not engaged in care. The network must also incorporate the full continuum of OASAS services by incorporating prevention and recovery into a more wholistic approach to community intervention. MAT in criminal justice settings and implementation of Contingency Management will also be areas of focus in enhancing treatment service to address opioid and stimulant disorder. Through regional networks, MAT in criminal justice settings and the implementation of contingency management OASAS will reach over 10,000 individuals per year with prevention, treatment and recovery services. Specific project reporting and GPRA data collection will be used to demonstrate the impact and effectiveness of this approach in improving patient outcomes.
