Access Colorado will enhance treatment and recovery support services in Colorado to ensure successful completion of substance abuse treatment and reduce the potential for relapse. Access Colorado will partner with a network of Employee Assistance Program (EAP) clinicians to provide an in-depth assessment and referral process based on consumer choice, while also building collaborations to increase and improve services. The EAP clinician will work with the client and with a consumer advocate to identify and provide information about treatment providers, recovery support services, and additional wrap-around services that best meet the client's needs. Individuals will access the EAP clinician based on a brief screening though a toll-free number or website. The target population for this program is adolescents and young adults, ages 12-25, as they have the greatest unmet need for treatment in the state. CO ranks as sixth highest in adolescent illicit drug use in the nation.
