First responders are frequently left with limited information and time to connect people to care; however, this connection is often crucial for people who use drugs. The ability to increase knowledge of community collaborations and bridge programming from the first responders to treatment services is a critical piece in the continuum of care. Utilizing a case study of programming and collaborative efforts in Missouri, participants will:
-Be able to identify gaps in service accessibility for people who use drugs.
-Understand different levels of care for treatment and varying recovery streams based on individual needs.
-Develop strategies to implement collaborative responses between first responders and recovery agencies in the community.
